An interesting aside is that Evolution has thrived so much there is because while we were engrossed in careful study the brits - with their bad teeth - were out playing in the mud saying stupid things like; "I bet this mud thats gone up the crack of my spotty ass would come to life if I was struck by lightning 'cause God is mean and the Beatles are not boring as hell at all ... Baaaahhhhh!!!" or words to that effect while we American persons were forbiden to say such silly things.
Oddly enough, though, there are a bunch of us over here who think its a pretty good idea to teach the religion of Atheism in the classrooms through the wonderfully ever changing dogma of Shinto ... SORRY! Evolution.
Since most of us have the sense to know that what they teach in public schools has absolutely no use at all and is about 87% bullshit anyway, who cares. As long as we can cheat our way through college and can use a spell check ... and our universities have wallclimbing and stupid shit like that ...

I kind of wanted to see what it would be like to switch positions, so I picked a couple old posts and responded to them like I see your (er, uh ... y'all's) responses to me. It was quite fun.
