I've asked him for details of his cow-kangaroo claim. That's usually enough to kill one of those conversations stone dead. These people aren't details men on the whole.

This makes me wonder...

Bring up Gish's bullfrog proteins and ask if this is another example of incompetance and dishonesty.

Hahaha! I don't think Gish'll EVER live that one down! I've heard where he still gets called on it at some college events.

Infinity, we are closely related to both, depending upon politican party.

I think it would be more fun to be related to cows. Cows make baby Jesus cry. (Or so I was told on Christian Forums when they took down the following picture.)

If human DNA is closer to kangaroo DNA than bovine DNA then I dare say that they can might try to find some examples at:

Apparently if you feed cows enough meat, they develop a taste for it and go out in search of more.

although, if it continues...

*imagines a cow with sharp teeth, etc*
