American idiots and their cowardly fear of reality

Why Evolution is True by Jerry Coyne

The Greatest Show on Earth, The Evidence for Evolution by Richard Dawkins

The Making of the Fittest: DNA and the Ultimate Forensic Record of Evolution by Sean B. Carroll

I have read these three excellent books about the evidence for evolution, I have studied evolution at countless websites, and I have made my own observations at museums and in nature. I noticed there is more evidence for evolution than even the most experienced biologist could study in one lifetime. I couldn't possibly be more convinced evolution is the strongest fact of science.

I know so much about evolution (but still only a small fraction of the overwhelming evidence, and not at the same level of understanding that a professional biologist has) that it bugs me to know I live in a country (Idiot America) where most of the population either completely denies the whole thing or they think supernatural magic is one of the mechanisms of evolution.

It's amazing there are millions of Americans who prefer a childish religious fantasy called magical creationism instead of the most interesting and most important fact of science. Of course I shouldn't be surprised. I have known for a long time most Americans are drooling morons.

Christians (and their Muslim terrorist friends) have renamed creationism several times because of their mostly unsuccessful attempts to use code words to disguise their childish fantasy to be able to sneak it into public school science classrooms. If only they could keep their stupidity in their churches, then I would be happy to ignore them. But they feel threatened by evolution so they attack it, lie about it, and they try to destroy or dumb down the teaching of evolution. Their never ending war against science education includes voting for politicians who want to destroy it. When that doesn't work they harass and threaten biology teachers. There is a New York Times article about these fucking assholes at These cowardly Christian assholes harassed, threatened, and yelled at an elderly female biology teacher.

These are just some of the code words that have been invented for the idiotic idea that all creatures were magically created out of nothing.

1. Creation science. There is nothing scientific about magic.

2. Intelligent design creationism. They love the word "design" but they really mean "magic" and there is nothing scientific about magic.

3. Teach the controversy. There is no fucking controversy about the basic facts of evolution.

4. Strengths and weaknesses. Evolution has no weaknesses. Evolution is how the world works. There's nothing weak about it.

Ask an evolution denier to study what they have been denying their entire lives and watch what happens. Nothing happens. They refuse to understand it. They are convinced they are right about evolution being false so they think it would be a waste of time to study it.

Creationists have many problems including stupidity and insanity. Their worst problem is a complete lack of any curiosity. They're not interested in learning anything because their curiosity has been sucked out of them thanks to several years of intense religious brainwashing. Their minds have been permanently destroyed because they don't have what it takes to recover from their disease.

The denial of evolution requires denial of the bedrock of two centuries of biology and geology. That is quite a feat.

For all of those who do see the overwhelming evidence of natural selection and life's descent from ancestors, and the immense span of time over which the story of life unfolded, it is, to put it mildly, baffling how so many still do not. It is absolutely astonishing and often infuriating that some take it so far as to deny the immense foundation of evidence and to slander all the human achievement that foundation represents.
