The more we know about the origins of the universe the less we understand it.

Utterly brainless bollocks.

Now, Snailie One. Evolution happens. Are you a fool? I ask because only a fool would deny that black is black, that Beethoven wrote Beethoven's Fifth, that the Pope is a Catholic, that one-legged ducks swim in circles and that evolution happens. Do read my harmonica-swollen lips, dear boy/girl (I'm a little confused because not only do I know that snails ain't fussy about what gender they are but also that I've just come back from seeing Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake). The existence of evolution is no more science than is the existence of my left testicle (under threat if my wife ever reads this thread). Evolution existed for billions of years before the first sentient being ever recognised it as such. Science requires the workings of the human mind. The explanation of evolution, as articulated by said human mind, is where the science comes in. If you doubt that evolution takes place, do join pete and his brainless cohort in the silly corner. Otherwise, do try to make the distinction between self-evident reality (not science) and the human interpretation of it (science). Now Popper off and enjoy yourself.
