The Darwin Anniversary
CMI ^ | November 24, 2009 | Carl Wieland

Posted on 11/24/2009 9:27:06 AM PST by GodGunsGuts

Today, November 24, it is exactly 150 years since Charles Darwin published his On the Origin of Species.

The world has been gearing up for this “second echelon” of celebrations for this international “Year of Darwin”, following on from the 200th anniversary of his birth this last February. Atheists and humanist groups in particular have seemed to be relishing the thought of giving further prominence to the ideas of their patron saint. Their adulation is heightened by their knowledge that...

Debate on church doctrine and or threads on specific religious matters may be best posted in the religion forum, but the defense of religious freedom, especially against those who wish to deprive us of same belongs front and center on FR.

They banned God and prayer and creationism from public schools and public places, but I’ll be damned if they’re gonna ban Him or it from FR!

OH NOES!

This unbiased shining truth must mean the Earth

Show me what Muhammad brought that was new and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as the command to spread by the sword the faith he preached. — Manuel II Paleologus

I think the name Muhammed could easily be replaced by Darwin and faith with atheism

Let’s hear it for rational discourse governed by consistent processes of inquiry based on observable phenomena and repeatable experiments. Ahh the free market place of theories where ideas stand or fall on their accumulated merits and facts not on the emotional attachment to unprovable beliefs.

LOL.
Darwin did no such thing.

1. He was a naturalist aboard the ship. Nothing more.
2. Captain Robert Fitzroy was responsible for any slaves brought on board during the ship’s “second voyage”.
3. Darwin objected to slavery and was rebuked by Fitzroy and the rest of the ship’s compliment.

But, hey, it makes a good story, so go with it.

Charles Darwin (with beard) looks very much like Karl Marx. This proves that evolutionary biology is a Leftist scam.

Oh, so you're against evolution too, I take it?

But this is the second one of my sarcastic posts to be misunderstood in the last couple days.
I am going to have to tag them all with a tag from now on. :)

Sorry about that.

I get my YEC/”Cult of Darwin” players mixed up.
We should really wear uniforms and numbers.
