In my yard I found a beautiful snake. It was black with white dots on its back. What were the white dots for? Was it a sexual selection thing? Or was it a natural selection thing that helped camouflage it?
Also in my backyard I have seen rabbits, birds, squirrels, white flowers, red flowers, purple flowers, the world's smallest ants, a very fat but small tree, and lots of very large and very green plants. I did nothing for all this stuff to happen. I just had to wait until spring to see it.
Just now I saw a very tiny and very delicate insect on the other side of one of my windows. It had very tiny wings and it was beautiful. Just to be sure it could fly I tapped my finger against the window and it flew away. I asked it to come back but it didn't want to. Then I saw several of the same creatures flying near my window.
What's very interesting is I share an ancestor with all these insects and plants and the other creatures. It's amazing what 4 billion years and natural selection can create.
America's Christian morons think all these creatures were magically created out of nothing. I can't imagine anything more boring. Our Christian fucktards don't know what they're missing.
"The religious imagination is paltry and petty compared to the awesome reality."
-- PZ Myers, Univerity of Minnesota biologist
"Darwin was the first to use data from nature to convince people that evolution is true, and his idea of natural selection was truly novel. It testifies to his genius that the concept of natural theology, accepted by most educated Westerners before 1859, was vanquished within only a few years by a single five-hundred-page book. On the Origin of Species turned the mysteries of life's diversity from mythology into genuine science." -- Jerry Coyne
