On Darwin and Liberace
Liberace: Piano Great
Credit and thanks to "R.B." for coining the term Liberal Liberace's which is defined only as an Extreme, Raging, Rabid, Ravenous, Bitter Liberal. (It has nothing to do with sexual orientation). As a matter of fact, in my humble opinion, Liberace was one helluva piano player and he brought piano music to the masses with his unimitated style of mixing classical pieces with pop music, much to the delight of the audience. We lost a fine piano player when he left us, and he had more years to give.
Chucky Darwin, creator of the Theory of Evolution
Without hardly trying, my "Today I Am a Liberal" piece brought out the Looney Left, ever so overly sensitized over mixing politics and religion.
It was okay for you, though, wasn't it, for Bubba Clinton to be seen for his two terms, every Sunday entering and exiting church carrying a Bible the size of the monolith in "2001". That didn't bother the Liberal Liberace crowd -- no, that was fine with them.
The Left's view of religion being inserted into politics is highly over-imaginative. Rest assured, should government (led by any political party) move to establishing a government sponsored religion, I will be there with you vociferously opposing it. Don't you have anything better to do?
So, back to Chucky D. If evolution is correct, then please show me the most recent of those who have evolved. I mean, if Darwin was right, apes should still be evolving into humans, correct? Anyone see or hear of an ape exiting the jungle and saying "I need some underwear and gimme a beer?" Please point me to the area from where the human race is still evolving. I'm sure scientists everywhere would like to observe this.
What is it about the Left, that they are so intolerant of another's religious beliefs? Why is it so hard for you to allow those who believe in a Creator to express themselves?
I'm no model for attendance in church or place of worship. But I believe in a Creator. If you want to give it a term of God, Supreme Being, or Creator - however you want to term it, it's your choice. But it's also a choice the pro-choice crowd does not like the Right to discuss.
And whether you believe in a Creator or not, it's fine with me. I'm not going to be preaching, or attempting to convert you. But allow those of us who do believe the right to do so.
Science, at best, is inexact. Theories abound, but hard-fact-proven-data is rare. Science, similar to doctors and lawyers, often disagree with their peers. Proving anything is anything, is again, a theory.
Science changes as technology advances and grows. "Four out of five Doctors recommend Lucky Strike cigarettes." "Coffee is bad for you." "Coffee is good for you." "Asbestos is safe." "Asbestos causes cancer." "Vioxx is safe." "Vioxx is unsafe."
Get the point? Probably not. That's okay.
