Darwin made me do it

Posted on | September 14, 2009 | Comments Off

Periodically I receive a comment that can only be called noxious. While I try to be tolerant of other view points, I do have limits to my patience. The posts I delete tend to be either vile racist rants, pornographic insults or as in the case of one I deleted today – simply odious.

I knew, before I even hit the Publish button, that I would receive hate mail over my previous post on the Charles Darwin pic, Creation. Barely had the post hit the web than I received a silly, anti-Semitic rant that blamed the British for all the world’s woes because of Darwin… I think… I didn’t read the entire comment because I really hate wasting my time on drivel and it can be fun using that old delete button! I find it fascinating how even the mention of Charles Darwin’s name can bring out the raving lunatic glee club. Where do they lurk?

I’m sure I’ll receive more. So to all of those from the abusive lunatic fringe I leave you these last thoughts:

Charles Darwin, Origin of Species, Evolution, tolerance, Faith – these ideas are not mutually exclusive.
