Subject: Bible and evolution both? |
Bible Note: Oscar, having thought about your statement that the theory of evolution is a beautiful theory, I believe I'll opt to disagree. To my mind the idea that man had his genesis in a swamp, a tadpole of sorts that called primordial ooze home sweet home, is not something that could be called beautiful. The only redeeming quality I can see in the horseradish that Darwin served up and called it evolution is this. Even if I or many another common mortal could manage to say something brilliant, chances are it would come out sounding stupid. Darwin, on the other hand, in postulating his theory, said something grossly stupid but managed to say it brilliantly. Or so, apparently, some people seem to think. --Hank |
