Good, because that'd be a pretty awkward moment:
DP: Sorry about cutting you off, Jesus.
Jesus: Don't worry about it.
DP: I just felt bad about it, is all.
Jesus: Look, everyone else in the world is raping me three times a day, alright? THREE TIMES A DAY. Getting cut off in traffic is no great shakes.
DP: Uh... I think I'm late for work.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
