Evolution is a conspiracy . . .
involving a hundred thousand research hours, producing thousands of scientific research papers, by thousands of scientists, over hundreds of years, in dozens of countries, to prove to . . . a senior biology student, in an American public school, that there is no God. ![]() [ June 07, 2002: Message edited by: notto ]</p> |

Actually, if there's all this evidence buried in the earth and inside all living things that supports evolution...
And if God created the earth and all living things... Isn't evolution a conspiracy by God? Jamie |

Actually, if my own high school experience is any indication, it was part of a conspiracy to make me flunk the AP Bio test...
But evolution didn't give me the hardest time, come to think of it. I kept getting "xylem" and "phloem" cells confused. Worse than stalactites and stalagmites... |

Hey ID, I can never remember the difference between xylem and phloem either, but there is a good way to remember the difference between stalactites and stalagmites. StalacTITe; the word TIT is in stalactite - just think of a pair of tits hanging down just as do the stalactites.

Nothing is worse than hopelessly convoluted mnemonics.

ID - beautiful rant! Now we can watch for it to show up sans attribution on some fundy website as if they wrote it and meant it!

"Stalagmites" = "Stalag 17" = way UP in Russia! |

Awesome effort, IesusDomini <img src="graemlins/notworthy.gif" border="0" alt="[Not Worthy]" />
However, I think that the spelling was much too good and you didn't use caps a single time. Those two points meant that it didn't ring true for me. By the way, isn't a "xylemphloem" some sort of musical instrument? [ June 07, 2002: Message edited by: gallo ]</p> |
