Quote by: DoctorBarber Ok, now you're just talking crazy. I can't be an ass if I'm apparently descended from a chimp. Get your evolution facts straight, sister!

Since you're so keen to get the facts straight, allow me correct you...

Humans did not descend from chimps -- only the ignorant still think that.

[DoctorBarber]

If not chimps, then what?

I'm asking this question assuming you were there to witness it all.

Chimps are our evolutionary cousins, not our ancestors. However, we do share a common ancestor in the primate line.

I'm asking this question assuming you were there to witness it all.

Sadly, I'm far more likely to be around to witness the final extermination of chimps. if you want to pray for something - I can think of a lot less so deserving of God's intervention.

But I won't hold my breath, of course.

Quote by: DoctorBarber You mean you're still 1% ape? Aww man... Your name is still the same, isn't it? Thats an aspect! You should still be the same height. You didn't forget how to drive a car, I hope. The list goes on.

At least she doesn't believe the earth is only some 6,000 years old and doesn't believe some cosmic god's zombie alcoholic son turned water into wine!

Quote by: Shade 2. Electing a Marxist to the White House.

And who would that be? You conservatives seem to be pretty creative in new ways to look like ignorant bafoons who can't understand that by defining Obama as a marxist, you are defining almost every politician a marxist, including Sarah Palin.

Find a scripture that states the world is 6,000 years old. Have fun with that, BTW.

Wow. And you don't even know your own scripture either!

This is definitely one of the ten defining moments this decade of my opinion of Dr. Barber

Oh! be fair Night, Karl Marks may have had his faults but unlike Mrs. Palin he wasn't a national joke, and his IQ was almost certainly in double figures.

One interesting tidbit about Marx is that he didn't earn much money -- he just mooched off his capitalist buddy, Engels.

(Well, Engels wasn't a capitalist himself, but his daddy was and both Engels and Marx mooched off of him.)

One interesting tidbit, everyone who supports public education is a Marxist!
