Evolution, development, and random biological ejaculations from a godless liberal
There may not be a god, but apparently there is a goddess, and her name is Tina Fey.
It’s a stunning about-face. Not only does she admit that evolution is valid, but she confesses that she herself is an example of a transitional form.
“I am gutted that I have let the American Right down like this,” she said at a tearful press conference this morning, surrounded by her collection of stuffed polar bears in the den of her Anchorage home.
“Our primary argument for Creation and against the communist satanic onslaught of evolution has always been: ‘Well I’ve never seen a chimp turn into a man’ or ‘Show me a gorilla giving birth to a human baby and I’ll believe in evolution’.
“It has been an argument as sophisticated as our Grand Old Party, and I am devastated that I have undermined it, firstly by transforming from a pitbull to a woman, and now into an elderly male slave-owner.”
It remains to be seen how the American electorate will deal with this revelation, since while she is now an admitted evilutionist, she is also still a peppy, chipper, attractive former beauty queen, and it remains to be seen whether any statement of substance can distract them from superficialities.
Donald Wildmon, crusading anti-gay bigot, is asking pastors to take a pledge to turn out the vote. He’s getting a good response, and you might want to encourage your ecclesiastical friends to participate.
I’m particularly impressed with the Alaskan contingent so far.
Think of me as bringing back the simple joys of yesteryear.
You can learn to love creationism! It’s just like green eggs and ham, except for the brain rot!
Greg Laden is trying to start a PZ Myers vs. Chuck Norris joke meme, and I’m sorry, all the entries so far are feeble and pathetic. I think this is a case where the black-and-white simplifications of a creationist mind do a far better job of generating catch-phrases than we etiolated intellectual elitists can. I’m just not cartoony enough yet.
Now that I’ve had the current banking disaster explained to me (short answer: the people responsible will be receiving a huge handout from the taxpayers), I can understand why Obama has decided to quit. It makes sense. Whoever wins the election is going to be in for a world of pain and hard work, if they take the job seriously.
Oh, wait…McCain has already signaled that he won’t be taking it seriously.
It will get you a mention on a famous webcomic, that’s what.
I look good as an angel (not exactly).
Literally. Bill Mutranowski of Atheist Cartoons sent me these drawings. Now you know where I get my black sense of humor: every morning I get up to look at that face in the mirror, and a fellow has got to laugh. And they all look exactly like me!
You can check out his collection of cartoons — this one was my favorite.
