Thread Name: BS: Evolution as Heresy?
Subject: RE: BS: Evolution as Heresy?
And the Dover, Pennsylvania trial is over (parents sued because the school board inserted ID into the biology curriculum) - I can hardly wait to see the verdict. Here you are:
EVOLUTION
All of the tune and most of the lyrics are shamelessly poached from the Beatles' "Revolution"
What little rewriting and rearrangement I did was to follow an actual (I almost said honest-to-god) Evolution on Trial case, Kitzmiller et al. v. the Dover Area School Board, of which the Alan Bonsell whom I mention is an outspoken member. If you haven't been aware of this case, I envy you unless you have children in the US public school system.

You say we're teaching evolution, well, you know
We all want to feed our head
You say you've read the constitution, well, you know
You better free your mind instead
Cause when you talk about destruction
Of Jefferson's wall, well, you can count me out
Without science it will be(shoobedoo) all night
all night, all night
all night, all night, all night
all night, all night, all night
All…
ID, you say, 's a real solution, well, you know
We'd all love to see the plan
Don't ask me for my contribution, well, you know
Let's wait and see the judge's hand
For if you want money from people with minds that think
You better think too or baby your cause will sink
If we can't learn it will be (shoobedoo) all night
all night, all night
all night, all night, all night
all night, all night, all night
All…
You say all change is revolution, well, you know
The Middle Ages weren't so free
You say that in your institution, well, you know
"Because I Heard So" trumps "I see"
But there you go carrying pictures of Allan Bonsell
If I were a Christian I'd say you should go to Hell
If we can't teach it will be (shoobedoo) all night
all night, all night
all night, all night, all night
all night, all night, all night
All…
