Evolution? What's That Again?

One thing that was widely accepted as a potential explanation for the result of US presidential elections was that almost half of Americans believe that God created human beings in their present form about 10,000 years ago. The same research revealed that only a third of Americans believe in Darwin’s evolution theory.

Fair enough, but that was just a gallup, right? Dream on, pal. Now a school district in Georgia has ordered these stickers applied to science textbooks teaching Darwinism:

Scary, huh? I thought so, too. And what’s really horrifying is that the mentioned school district is probably not alone. But now the scientists are striking back. Some guys at Swarthmore have prepared a page of stickers, ready for you to print out and consume. Take a look, they’re hilarious (in a sad clown way). This is one of my favorites:

This book discusses evolution. President George W. Bush said, On the issue of evolution, the verdict is still out on how God created the Earth. Therefore, until 2008 this material shood be aproched with an open mind, studeed carefuly, and critcly consid’rd.
