Happy Darwin Day!
To every person who respects the contribrutions of evolutionary theory to modern science, religious and non, I'd like to wish everyone a happy Darwin Day!
Edit: Shoot, can this thread be moved to Science and Mathematics... more apropriate and also, I'd prefer this thread not start a flamewar

exactly, which is why it should be moved to science and math, it doesn't have anything to do with religion, and keeping it here will only stirr up anger

I doubt it, lol.
I believe in a God and I don't get angered by it. :]
But, I also believe in evolution.

I have it on good authority that they dug up Darwin, took his DNA and cloned him. They are currently working on speeding up his evolution, so that he become a super advanced uber Darwin, and which point he will be released to destroy the non believers.
In preparation for that day, creationists are cloning an army of raptor riding Jesuses to defend themselves."A dream that we dream alone is just a dream. A dream that we dream together could become reality" - Deepak Chopra

Yay for Evolution. That's 0 for religion,... 34578043578934573543785239857 for science. Of course they don't know that, religious people don't believe in numbers that big

Moved to Science & Mathematics.
Happy Darwin day! Even though I've not heard of it.
You merely have to change your point of view slightly, and then that glass will sparkle when it reflects the light.

Ah, I'll have to remember to make one in R/S on yours.

Hm, maybe just seems strange to me, since I grew up with it.
But let me rephrase:
I think Evolution is too old of news, to enlighten all humanity.
Darwin still was pretty genius.

I <3 Darwin. Natural selection is so beautiful.
When I visited UCL they had grafitti of Darwin's face on some buildings. That made me want to go to UCL quite a bit.
soft she stirs on starlit sand,
and clasps wet shore within her hand.
she turns to face the silent seas,
and through her heart, a vital breeze.
she wonders at this strange new land.

My beliefs allow for the ability of evolution, as it for sure has had an impact on life in some way.
Happy Darwin Day!? Who knew."That's the effect of living backwards, it always makes one a little giddy at first--""Living backwards!" "I never heard of such a thing!" "--but there's one great advantage in it, that one's memory works both ways." "I'm sure MINE only works one way." Alice remarked. "I can't remember things before they happen." "it's a poor sort of memory that only works backwards,"

This would be a good time to post www.unknownworlds.com/ns2
They game is called Natural Selection, and it works like it too. It was deprived from Starcraft...
No better way of learning about Natural Selection then playing the game :3

I wore a shirt that said "Happy Birthday Darwin" to school today. It didn't spark as many discussions as I'd initially hoped, but it did make some of my teachers uncomfortable.

And monster madness doing drive-bys on a fuckin fixie bike
Fuck it moron, snortin oxycontin, wearin cotton,
Oxymoron like buff faggots playin sissy dykes
