I think one day America will implode on itself, like a depressive spiral hitting them at the peak of their high feeling: Denial.

Just a thought

Yay! Nice to know there are still some people of sense in the US justice system...

Intelligent design! The human body is really an example of bloody stupid design.

I mean, routing the urethra right through the middle of the prostate... What's up with that? It's simply asking for trouble.

Good sign. However, I expect that some local preacher will preach against this and promises fire and brimstone on the judge's family. Or words to that effect.

Have you read the comments on that article?

They scare me...

They're all from the UK, I didn't realise we had that many idiots.

It's always the idiots who are loud.

After years of trying to reason with various stereotyped responses I eventually realised I was wasting my time and gave up. So when I encounter views like "I can't see how we descended from monkeys...", etc., what I really want to say in response is "Well, that's because you're not very bright dear." But I don't mostly for two reasons: I'm not that nasty and I don't want to get punched.

To be fair though, Dawkin's style modern evolutionary theory is not easily understood even by many people with above average intelligence.
