"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

Christopher Hitchens talked about religious assholes. What he said is one of the reasons I have so much contempt for anyone who thinks the Magic Man is real or might be real. There is no excuse for this fucking bullshit in the 21st century.
