For Some Reason, People Still Don't Believe in Evolution

Darwin's 200th birthday is coming up, and for some odd reason, people still don't believe in evolution. This is 2009, people. Airplanes fly in the sky and we have landed on the moon. What's so difficult to believe that maybe we have changed as a lifeform just a wee bit over the last 4.5 billion years?

I'm a Republican and I believe in God, but I also stringently believe in evolution. The only reason it's still a theory is because we don't have a time machine to make it fact. It's high time that we yield to evidence and take it at face or near-face value.

And the evolutionary evidence is immense. We have fossils and living beings that go very far to prove evolution. Even the fact that we have opposable thumbs should cause some folks to question creationism! But, no, they don't want to see the obvious.

You know who doesn't believe in evolution? Osama bin Laden! Why? Because he believes that the Earth was created in seven literal days. We can at least say that the Earth is more than a few thousand years old, or are we unable to concede this obvious fact?

If we need any proof among the living, the breeding of dogs from wolves clearly show us how evolution could work. While in this case, it was aided by man, just a few thousand years caused such massive disparities in the canine world.

This is not like global warming, where we've just been studying it a few years. This has been going on for 150 years and is backed by fossils and current life. Climate change is yet mostly unknown and fluid.

This is NOT a satire piece. It's meant to say, please take a look at the evidence.

Coolest Story Ever-- Iranian Cleric in Porn Scandal

Well, I guess theocracy has its upsides as an Iranian cleric was caught on video. This video is sweeping the world and seems to be causing some problems for the religious fundamentalists.

“One thing we had never seen before was a cleric’s naked butt,” commented one young Iranian below the online video clip. “Thanks to the Internet, that is no longer impossible!”

Of course, it is hardly news that hormones do not always heed titular expectations, but this is the first video evidence of a cleric’s misbehavior to spread publicly. Iranians’ glee at exposing such hypocrisy, however, is tinged by another sentiment: anger.

Many remember how last year—ironically in the same province of Hamadan—a medical student was arrested by the “Morality Patrol” for sitting with her fiancé in a public park. When her family was finally allowed to visit her 48 hours later, they were asked to remove her lifeless body. Police claimed she had hanged herself in the temporary detention centre, and the state blocked an investigation by warning that any discussion “would only give the enemy’s propagandists their much-needed opportunity to attack us.”

So they're not perfect, either, huh? Maybe this will convince them to stop attempting to develop nuclear weapons because they realize that they're human too.
