DAYTON, TN—A steady stream of devoted evolutionists continued to gather in this small Tennessee town today to witness what many believe is an image of Charles Darwin—author of The Origin Of Species and founder of the modern evolutionary movement—made manifest on a concrete wall in downtown Dayton.

I saw a cornflake in my bowl which gave me pause to consider. Thought I was just imagining - Perhaps not, hmm?

After reading the article, especially some of the statements made by people, it sounds like a religion to me.

Quote:

"I brought my baby to touch the wall, so that the power of Darwin can purify her genetic makeup of undesirable inherited traits," said Darlene Freiberg, one among a growing crowd assembled here to see the mysterious stain, which appeared last Monday on one side of the Rhea County Courthouse. The building was also the location of the famed "Scopes Monkey Trial" and is widely considered one of Darwinism's holiest sites. "Forgive me, O Charles, for ever doubting your Divine Evolution. After seeing this miracle of limestone pigmentation with my own eyes, my faith in empirical reasoning will never again be tested."

Added Freiberg, "Behold the power and glory of the scientific method!"

I thought science and religion were incompatible, especially regarding evolution, yet these people seem to have a religious fervore regarding the stain on the wall.

I think that it looks more like Johny Depp with that rag on his head.

I think that, whoever writes these bits for the onion, should be writing for the McCain/Palin ticket.
