The Eye: Evolution versus Creationism
Sox2 writes "SciScoop is running a story about researchers in Germany who claim to have solved the "mystery" surrounding the evolution of the mamalian eye. The work, published in Science, goes some way to answering the issues raised in the "intelligent design" debate that has become the mainstay of creationist thinking."
What's your favorite Linux distribution? Why?
Does anyone you know still run Windows?
What religion are you?
Vi or emacs?
Mac users: all gay?
How do you feel about abortion?
Which U.S. presidential candidate do you support?
Was the war in Iraq justified?
Just some food for thought.
What is this "Creationism" program? And will it run on Linux?
BTW, I am not sure that evolution is incompatible with the idea of "intelligent design" as long as one is careful about defining intelligent design....

You have two hands and one brain, so always code twice as much as you think!
Ahh... natural selection at work...
The creationism website has been slashdotted.
That's all the proof *I* needed! Go Darwin!

Fuck The Creationists
Trash Talk
Ah yeah, here we go again!

This one goes out to all my homey's working in the field of
evolutionary science.
Check it!
Verse 1
Fuck the damn creationists, those bunch of dumb-ass bitches,
every time I think of them my trigger finger itches.
They want to have their bullshit, taught in public class,
Stephen J. Gould should put his foot right up their ass.
Noah and his ark, Adam and his Eve,
straight up fairy stories even children don't believe.
I'm not saying there's no god, that's not for me to say,
all I'm saying is the Earth was not made in a day.
Chorus
Fuck, fuck, fuck,
fuck the Creationists.
Trash Talk
Break it down.
Ah damn, this is a funky jam!
I'm about ready to kick this bitch back in.
Check it.
Verse 2
Fuck the damn creationists I say it with authority,
because kicking their punk asses be me paramount priority.
Them wack-ass bitches say, "evolution's just a theory",
they best step off, them brainless fools, I'll give them cause to fear me.
The cosmos is expanding every second, every day,
but their minds are shrinking as they close their eyes and pray.
They call their bullshit science like the word could give them cred,
if them bitches be scientists then cap me in the head.
Chorus
Trash Talk
Bass!
Bring that shit in!
Ah yeah, that's right, fuck them all motherfuckers.
Fucking punk ass creationists trying to set scientific thought back 400 years.
Fuck that!
If them superstitious motherfuckers want to have that kind of party,
I'm going to put my dick in the mashed potatoes.
Fucking creationists.
Fuck them.
Creationists are a lot like zombies. Slow, but powerful and numerous. And they all want to eat our brains.
Of course, this could be true. It could also be true that the universe was created last Thursday
Oh, great! It had to be a Thursday! I never could quite get the hang of Thursdays.
If X is the new Y, and Y is "X is the new Y", solve for X.
Had it ever occured to you that the reason cephalopods have better eyes is that Cthulhu created the earth?
