Yeah, That’s Totally Darwin’s Fault

Take it away, Sharon!

Could it just be possible that teaching evolution as fact, that students come from animals and without purpose, be responsible in any way for the increase of crime and other social problems, such as rape, that we’re seeing amongst our youth today? […]

For instance, as pointed out by Gary DeMar in his editorial, “The Dark Side of Evolution,” two evolutionists, writing in the Academy of Science magazine, The Sciences, stated, “Rape is a ‘natural, biological’ phenonmenon, springing from men’s evolutionary urge to reproduce.” Couple this with the over-the-edge sex-ed now being taught in schools, should we be surprised when we hear that middle school kids are having sex, even in the classroom?

This is totally what’s wrong with kids today- instead of coming home and watching TV, they’re reading obscure articles in the Academy of Sciences journal. Sure, it sounds harmless when they tell their parents they’re going to hang out at The Genome Integrity Discussion Group, but don’t be fooled- that’s just a code word for “Rape Class.”

And as for teaching condoms, that’s obviously part of the problem too, since I’m sure most rapists are strict practioners of safe sex.

yeah, she totally screwed up her argument by not making it flow more smoothly. First, she’s talking about rape, then she’s just talking about middle school students having sex. She should really have a better segue, or even use her poetic license to change some words around. Then she would be able to make her point better. Maybe I should create my own website and sell materials to conservative writers to help them be better able to make their points without such obvious holes in them. If only I could find out how to set up that website and make it one of the top sites on some search engine somewhere…

Please don’t make my work harder than it already is (well, debunking bad wingnut arguments isn’t tough, but reading them is) šŸ˜‰

Can we blame Darwin for Sharon including 9 commas and 5 clauses in one sentance?

Also fun: Sharon trots out the “Hitler liked evolution” bit and claims that his racism was based on the fact that he thought Aryan’s were more evolved. Actually, Hitler thought Ayran’s were special creations of God (the “highest image of the Lord”). So, by Sharon’s reasoning, religion is racist and leads to rape and sex in classrooms.

 
 

Does Sharon have any stats on an increase in rape among juveniles? No? Okay, I’ve got a lede for ya:

“Could it just be possible that Ann Coulter appearing on the cover of Time magazine is responsible for the astronomical increase in monkey-sex orgies among Renew America columnists?”

 
 

Maybe,

It’s more likely that sex-ed classes have led to an marked increase in horse cock jokes.

 
 

Brad, you’re scary-good at this stuff. S,N! is a perfect fit for you.

 
 

This argument is on par with Lynne Cheney’s contention that the murder of an ice-cream man in Philadelphia shows the deleterious effects of deconstructionism.

Lynn argued that?

 
 

Why is evolution a bad thing compared to Adam and Eve???

Don’t all of these Christian nuts realize that if we came from A&E that we were born out of INCEST!!??

 
 

I’ve wondered about that too, Sgt. D. Could it just be possible that repeated inbreeding over many generations, that centuries of people fucking their siblings and parents, be responsible in any way for the increase of incredible stupidity that we’re seeing amongst our wingnuts today? My favorite part of Sharon’s column is this:

By teaching students Darwin’s theory of evolution on race, that race is nothing more than a part of the evolutionary process, with blacks at the bottom and whites at the top, could it be possible to encourage, even incite, some to white supremacy actions or ‘hate crimes’ that are on the rise by young people today?

Yeah, that’s why you never see a skinhead without a copy of “The Origin of Species” tucked under his arm.

 
 

Don’t all of these Christian nuts realize that if we came from A&E that we were born out of INCEST!!??

Please. There’s no biblical injunction against incest until Leviticus – that’s many many generations removed from Adam and Eve. You see, the human genome was perfect in the beginning, but like everything else, after humanity was expelled from Eden, the genome incorporated inperfections. The offspring of a brother and sister would have been perfectly normal until the DNA was brought down to this impure level, in the time of Moses.

Or so says some wingnut, don’t remember which.

 
 

Wait a minute, Stacy. Are you suggesting genetic changes taking place over an extended period of time? ‘Cause that theory sounds awfully familiar…

 
 

It’s always cute when conservatives — you know, the side that typically has the racists — try to claim that liberals want to teach evolution because liberals It’s always cute when conservatives — you know, the side that typically has the racists — try to claim that liberals want to teach evolution because liberals

 
 

Uh, that should end with “heart eugenics.”

Well, sure, Yosef. It’s Intelligent Design! God designed everything to be perfect in the Garden of Eden, including A&E’s genes. But then after the Fall, evil was let into the world (not by God of course, but by man’s willfulness and disobedience). The evil corrupted everything so that nothing could be pure anymore, and God let the impurities into DNA in the form of “bad” alleles. Initially there were so few of these impurities in the genetic code that the children born of incestuous marriages would have been completely normal, but since the world gets more and more impure as time goes by, by the time of Moses, genetic defects would have been a possibility, hence the prohibition on incest.

 
 

holymotherofgod miraculously appears in the blog comments and waits for the stunned silence…. oh, wait, that usually comes after what I’ve said…for various reasons….

*sigh*

And I was a virgin…..

 
 

Her writing style alerts me to the possibility that she has hopes of being spotted as the ‘literate missing link’. Which is really sad, because she is not only illiterate, she is no missing link either. She is however a member of a vast army of leminglike humans who are hoping that with the force of mangled sentences and words alone, they will evade evolution and become fossils. I pray to the missing link that he will grant them their wish.

And Nietzsche, who declared to the world ‘God is dead,’ believed in the breeding of a master race.

And anyone literate who’s ever read Da Neech (as I affectionately like to call him) knows that his “ubermensch” had nothing to do with race or physical qualities.

And furthermore, Ms. Douchebag, people like Hitler were just as misinformed as you theocratic fuckwipes are: evolution, in a strict biological sense, has absolutely nothing to do with progressive advancement. It means adaptation.

If you were to try to mangle this concept to fit it into a social framework, you would have to conclude that when you’re surrounded by dumb fucks who should have forgotten how to breathe by now due to their immense stupidity, the best thing to do is become a dumb fuck as well for your own safety and mental well-being.

 
 

Marx dedicated his work “Das Kapital” to Charles Darwin, btw.

The subtitle of Darwin’s work speaks of the superiority of certain races. Wonder who would publish such racism today or even allow such an author onto a university campus????
