One of the finest and funniest posts ever made on E/C, and it's been far too long since it's been reposted, and Radorth needs to see it.

I won't swear all the links work still...

You do not like evolution, man?
I do not like it, Darwini-an.
You may see it, look and see!
You can see it in this tree!

Hawaiian silverswords

I do not see it in a tree.
I know my God, he’s good to me!
But look, it’s written in the rocks!
Would you, could you
See some rocks?
I will not, will not, look at rocks.
Well maybe you could see this fox?

< various dog, fox, wolf, dhole etc pics >

I will not see it in a fox.
I will not see it in the rocks.
I will not see it in a tree.
I do not like it, scientist, you see.
I do not like evolution, man!
I do not like it, Darwini-an!
Liking it’s not here or there
You can see it -- everywhere!
It’s not to like -- descent’s a fact,
Or a strange way for a God to act,
To give us lots of broken genes --
So tell me, tell me, what that means!
Air and foodpipes both in the throat?
Silly chap, now see this goat!

< viable goat/sheep hybrids are possible by artificial insemination >
Understanding’s a real cinch
If you will come and see this finch!

No problem, no problem with the throat,
Same kind, same kind, are sheep and goat!
I do not, do not accept this finch!
For God these things are all a cinch!
Do you, do you, believe the flood?
I’d rather flood than crawl from mud!
Koala, dino, insect and shark
You think were all inside an ark?
So many critters in one place
Didn’t they run out of space?
Yes they were inside the ark!
(Which was the size of Central Park)
That many kinds? Oh what a pity!
I guess the place got pretty shitty!
They pooped in scoops and cows turned fans
Think out of your box Darwini-an!
Yes they were on board the boat
I do not see it in a goat
I think my God you want to lynch
So you can stuff your bloody finch!
Not in a fox!
Not in the rocks!
Not in a tree!
I will not see!
I do not like it here or there
I think it’s evil everywhere!
You do not seem to understand
I do not like it, Darwini-an!
Evolution’s evil. So you say.
Try it, try it, and you may
Try it and you may, I say
See it poses no great threats
To your great God (though we’re his pets).
It only upsets literal Gen.
A deep, rich story -- no problem then!
< looks at evidence, looks at bible, looks at evidence >
Nature’s wrong, the bible’s right
So I’ll argue this all bloody night!
