Should We Just Call Dog Breeds a Different Species?
Jamie found an amusing bit this morning on Scientific American where the author proposes that dog breeds are different species. Now some of you might recoil when you hear this suggestion, but if you read the article to see why he makes this suggestion I suspect you'll crack a smile and appreciate the elegance of the solution.
the right to enslave 8-year-olds in a third-world country is currently considered to be freedom.
Yes, I'm left. You have a problem with that?
You're not using your imagination. The "turn around" would be to say that evolutionists are dumb because they think different species of dogs "evolved" when clearly we intelligently designed them. Then the audience will cheer and they'll move on to their next talking point. The problem here is that you seem to approach it as an intellectual debate. It's not; it's a pep rally and a dogma spouted by Authority.
