Ranting and Raving

This article at Wired Online talks about evangelicals in Kenya trying to get the exihbit wording changed about evolution at the Nairobi National Museum, where some of the most compelling evidence that we are evolved from might possibly be genetically related to monkeys is displayed. My favorite part is this quote:

“When you use evolution as God’s tool in creating man in his image, you have to reckon with the fact at what stage in the evolution process does man attain to that image?” he said. “The conclusion is either God’s image is evolving or God Himself is evolving or every creature has God’s image. God could be anything and I’m afraid I cannot put my faith in a ‘changing God’ or an ‘anything God’.”

Human arrogance at it’s absolute BEST. “We created the idea of God so it cannot be/look like anything else”. Which, if you want to be a dick about it, can be used as evidence against the existence of God. If God created us (as I think almost every religion believes), who the fuck are we to say what the fuck God looks like. For all intents and purposes, these guys could be right on…noodley appendeges and all!!

I want you to know that I have been trying to write this post for the last hour to make it sound educated and maybe illicit an interesting discorse….I just cannot seem to get the words flowing. So I leave you with these two things: Take what you will from the article and my intial comment (from an hour before this was posted). I believe in something, and so does eveyone else….we just don’t all agree on what that something might be.

Secondly, this will all be a moot point once our Robot Masters arrive and enslave us all anyway. 😉
