I've decided that I'm going to stop believing in evolution. If I don't believe that living things change over time then bird flu is a figment of my imagination. If enough people don't believe it can happen, it can't happen, right? We've been duped by the liberal media to think that bird flu is a problem. Hell, we've been duped into thinking evolution actually happens. I mean really, so what if proof is everywhere we look? So what if children look like their parents, or farmers have bred cows to produce more milk, or the Cold keeps coming back in a new form year after year. It's all bunk! How naive we have been! If only we pray harder and suspend all belief in reality things will be ok. It's like clapping when Tinker Bell is dying. If we clap loud enough, those little viruses won't mutate and sweep the planet.
Who's with me? Down with evolution! Clap, clap, clap.
You'll have to forgive me, I've been reading a book on the Scopes "Monkey" trial back in the 1920's. How sad that in almost 100 years (!) the argument from the Christian right hasn't changed. I guess I shouldn't be surprised. They don't believe in evolution after all. At least they practice what they preach.

"the Church does not have an official position on whether various life forms developed over the course of time. However, it says that, if they did develop, then they did so under the impetus and guidance of God, and their ultimate creation must be ascribed to him."
