I think the real story is that after the first three plagues, Moses goes to see Pharaoh:
Moses: god has hardened your heart, that you may know that he is powerful.
Pharaoh: if he really wants to impress me, tell him to harden my cock!
*The room explodes into raucous laughter*
Yahweh: oh, is that how it's going to be? SEVEN MORE PLAGUES, ASSHOLE!!!
Egyptian Scribe: *wipes away tears* "harden my cock" LOL, gonna have to chisel that one on a wall...

"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."
