Another lampoon of the evolution debate


Poem Artwork


My best friend asked me to go skydiving.
I said, “Thank you, No thank you.”
He wanted to know if I was a man or a mouse.
Told him I sure as hell wasn’t a freaking bird.
Well, then the smart ass told me a chicken is a bird,
chicken
.



Whereupon I told him I wasn’t aware that
chickens flew a migration route.

He asked me if I ever heard of Darwin.
Well, Yea.
Darwin said everything came from the same mudhole.
All the birds, animals, fishes and people have
the same common ancestor and are more or less
all programmed the same. We all went different
ways because of different interests. Some liked to
fly, others liked to swim, climb trees and so on and
so forth.

I said, “Well, I’ll be a monkey’s uncle. I didn’t know that.
So what you’re telling me is that I should go
skydiving because I could’ve been a bird? ”
“Exactly. It’s in your genes.”
I said, “Is that a fact? ”
“Well, actually, a theory, he replied.
I told him I didn’t think that was very intelligent
and said Darwin and he could go screw themselves,
theoretically speaking.

If we all come from the same gene pool so to speak then I would say anyone with half the intelligence of a chicken that goes skydiving is crazy...e
