I wrote this comment at Fairy tale of evolution vs. truth of creationism.
Here it is:
This letter is in response to your political cartoon of April 15 that
shows a blackboard with the words "Evolution" and 'Creationism." The
teacher points at "Creationism" and says, "And this theory proves that
some humans have evolved a lot less than others." I think the cartoonist and your editor are showing their bigotry, crassness and hatred against Christianity. Even worse is your affront toward God Almighty.
The cartoonist was not showing hatred. He or she was only ridiculing
uneducated people like you. And you deserve the ridicule. While normal
people live in the 21st century, god-soaked cowards like you hide in
the Dark Ages.
You can expect more ridicule the rest of your pathetic life unless
of course you ever decide to grow up, educate yourself, and face facts.
This is one of your problems Mr. Boynton. You don't know what you're talking about. I suggest your high school biology teacher was extremely incompetent. If he (or she) did his job you might still be a science denier because of the religious brainwashing you had to endure, but you would at least know something about what you're denying.
When you show off your total ignorance of science you are disgracing yourself, disgracing your country, and disgracing your religion.
There have been way more than enough discoveries of fossils of transitional species, also known as missing links that are no longer missing.
What you don't understand is the fossils, while very useful for describing how a new species very gradually developed, are just plain not necessary to say evolution is a fact. There is much more powerful evidence for evolution from molecular biology, another branch of science that you know nothing about. The evidence, and there's tons of it, is undeniable. All a person has to do is use google to look it up. Anyone who has internet access has no excuse to not know anything about evolutionary biology.
"Evolution is a theory of Charles Darwin that claims to tell the origins of mankind. This makes Darwinism a religion, which can be believed by only faith on scant evidence to uphold it. This religion permeates our classrooms from public primary school through college."
Some friendly advice -- any biologists who read that paragraph would either be laughing at you or shaking their head in disgust. Evolutionary biology is a branch of science. To call it a religion is an insult to the hard work of thousands of brilliant biologists. Perhaps you owe them an apology.
Please read this quote which is from the best encyclopedia in the world. Then try to tell us why evolution requires faith.
There is probably no other notion in any field of science that has been as extensively tested and as thoroughly corroborated as the evolutionary origin of living organisms.
-- Encyclopedia Britannica
I wrote about some of the overwhelming evidence for evolution at EVIDENCE FOR EVOLUTION (86 posts).
Why does Albert R. Boynton prefer medieval fantasies instead of 21st century science? His problem is of course his religion, the Christian Death Cult. Always the problem is religion. The solution is obvious. Just eradicate all religious fantasies from America. Throw out the supernatural magic. Make the preachers, priests, rabbis, clerics, and other worthless religious leaders get real jobs.
The best way to achieve this goal, the eradication of religious insanity, is to teach evolution, preferably starting in First Grade before the minds of students have been permanently destroyed by religious indoctrination.
Some Christians pretend they accept the massive evidence for evolution but virtually always they invoke their magic Jeebus man to invent or use or guide evolution. They call themselves theistic evolutionists but they are really evolution deniers because there's nothing theistic about any branch of science. All natural processes including evolution by natural selection do not need supernatural explanations.
But isn't religion good for something? No, of course not. Religion has given the world nothing but violence and stupidity. Without religion getting in the way there could be unlimited human progress. Science provides answers. Religion provides wild guessing and they are always wrong about everything.
This is the 21st century. Religious cowards need to stop hiding in the Dark Ages.
