"From where I am standing Steve, there is little to choose between you and Pete, ... "

What uncritical, unthinking, arrogant nonsense! What the **** are you standing on, 'BrendanB'!

For months now Steve, and a few others, have been trying to defend the scientific Theory of Evolution against fundamentalist, religiously inspired claptrap. Meanwhile a few nitpickers have been buzzing around like mosquitoes (of course, I know that in one particular case I'm mixing my metaphors!).

Religious fundamentalism is a potential threat to all of us. The views of people like pete, and the woman formerly known as Iona, must be challenged whenever possible!
