B Rad of the W

Before I bitch about “Intelligent Design” let me point out that I am not an archaeologist, a biblical scholar, or for that matter any sort of academic or theologian. I am however a fairly smart person. For example if I slam my head in a car door, a wooden door, a screen door, a sliding door and a closet door I am quite smart enough to figure out that if I also slam it in a metal door it will hurt as well. I may not be able to tell you how much it will hurt compared to the other door types but rest assured I am still right and it will still hurt on some level. So if you give me enough facts I can see the end result pretty well.

Now with that said I really hate “Intelligent Design” and all it stands for. Various people take it to various levels of stupidity but it all looks like horse shit to me. I just read this story from Florida about them wanting “other ideas” taught in school. In addition, they do not want Evolution taught as science. They are afraid the kids will be confused if they are taught fact in school and candy coated bullshit at home. oops… I mean they are afraid kids will be confused if they are taught Evolution in school and Creationism at home. Well those are some stupid ass kids down in Florida huh? I was taught both and managed to keep the two straight. Hell when I went to school all dinosaurs were green, had cold blood and moved real slow. I have adopted the new knowledge OK an seem to have adjusted to the fact that they might have had warm blood. But then again I don’t shoot my friends in the face with a gun because I did it in a video game either… guess I am smart like that.

The first problem is in the naming of the two areas. It should be “Story Time” vs. “Evolution Fact”. I know we don’t have all the holes filled in but if you are putting a puzzle together do you need all the parts before you can figure out what the whole image will be? Even if evolution has terrible flaws and some wrong information it is still solid science that holds one true fact and that is that we carbon units on planet Earth change and evolve. If you have any doubt of this look at the classic example of the way viruses change and adapt. Do it with facts and not stories. We just do not yet know how many curves, twists and dead ends this road has. There is still the group that is going to go with the moldy, crusty outdated collection of paper written in dead languages that says otherwise. We better just go with that. Great and based on that collection of crap I am going to start chopping kids in half to see who its real parent is. We don’t need these DNA tests science gave us! They are just crap. The real way to see who a kids parent is involves chopping them in half.

Seriously you think dinosaurs and people played jump rope together? Well over at the Creation Museum which is chuck full of bull shit they have all sorts of tall tales to weave for you. Here is an entertaining review of the museum. Even if you want to be all religious there is a place for evolution and god. They don’t have to fight. The bible is just some dead trees glued together with a little ink splattered on it. The worst part is that is has been translated, reworded, interpreted, suppressed and done up so many different ways it is hard to believe any thing of value it might have once had to say it still in any of the pages to look at.

But that is not the point. If intelligent design is the true and correct path then explain to me all of the human like skeletons we have found, all the stuff that is over 5000 years old and all the fossils.
