[...] It’s amusing to immerse yourself in the train wreck denialism of a delusional base. From the pamphlets to the hero worship (and I say this as a committed O-bot), the similarites to their collective understanding of the country’s founding documents and Ray Comfort’s understanding of Darwin and Natural Selection. [...]

What is the athiest afraid of? Most of the comments I read are the typical mean spirited type from the athiest camp.Name calling, nothing of signifigance. All Ray Comfort is asking is that you read the book, both viewpoints with a open mind and see which makes more sense.If evolution is really rtue like you believe then you have nothing to worry about, but I guarentee if you are honest enough to be a real free thinker, his points will cause you to rethink what you have been led to believe all these years.Science is a search for truth and knowledge. The secular scientist and the Creationist actually have the same science, its not a question of faith vs.science, its actually a question of the interpetation of the science. Comfort simply points out the flaws with Darwins theory, and science does point out those flaws. Its interesting that Darwin had a degree, but it was actually in Theology and not Science! How ironic that the Creation vs. Evolution debate is phrased as science vs. religion, with the basis of Darwinian Evolution as being assumed as the science, when Darwin himself was not a scientist actually but a theologin.
Please be honest enough with yourselves to at least entertain the slight possibility that you could be wrong and what you hold as the truth just could be a lie. Think about it, really, common sense tells us that all of what we see in this world could not have come by chance.Its really that simple. Our world is so complex its incredible. Math masterminds have figured the odds of everything coming to be by chance it is simply impossible. Tne DNA is the most complex discovery and scientists have admitted that it had to have a designer behind it. Dont supress the truth any longer. Deep down in your heart you know, despite the lie of evolution you have been fed, you know better. Just read the first 50 pages of the book. You will be suprised! There is a whole other side of the story that has been kept from you,and real observational science actually supports it! I notice the angry athiest usually doesnt argue the science, but just resorts to name calling and such. If you truly want to be objective and make up your own mind, read the whole book and maybe you will be set free of the bondage you are in and dont even know it.You even think you have come to your own decisions, come to your own conclusions, but you have not, you have been influenced by a particular viewpoint, just like all of us have, but you dont even realize it! Read the book and then make up your own mind.

Since Mr. Comfort thinks it’s a good idea to publish “The Origin of Species” with 4 chapters removed, and a special ‘critique’ disguised as an Introduction, perhaps he would also think it good form for ‘critics’ to publish and distribute copies of the New Testament, with an new special “Introduction” (read critique) and with 4 chapters removed.

So the Evangilicals ha ve a problem with reality or Darwin? George summed it up: Think about it. Religion has actually convinced people that there’s an invisible man living in the sky who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever ’til the end of time! But He loves you. He loves you, and He needs money! He always needs money! He’s all-powerful, all-perfect, all-knowing, and all-wise, somehow just can’t handle money! Religion takes in billions of dollars, they pay no taxes, and they always need a little more. Now, you talk about a good bullshit story. Holy Shit!”

The introduction’s plagiarism allegations are priceless. Oh the irony that this is being distributed exclusively on college campuses. It’s all over google now.

Re blogger @ #8

Darwin isn’t too popular in much of the Muslim world nor in some of the orthodox Jewish world either. The Muslims and Jews who attack the Theory of Evolution on religious grounds are just as idiotic as their Christian counterparts.
