My Evidence for Intelligent Design...

...is also this week's episode of....



Okay, so today I was reading an article on a Federal Court Case in Pennsylvania where a judge appointed by Bush will be ruling on whether a school board was wrong in forcing science teachers to offer alternative information to evolution, namely, the theory of intelligent design.

As I read this, this latest salvo in the fundamentalist attack on rational thought made me suddenly think that this whole idea of an outside forces directly causing man to walk the earth has been explored before.

(By the way, this whole evolution vs. creationism argument is really based in fundamentalist fear that those of us who dont agree with them think they are stupid. Well, let me go on record as saying, Yes, They Are Stupid, They Are Dumb As a Box of Hammers.)

In any event, while this has all been addressed by our friend the Flying Spaghetti Monster (see link, right) but it was addressed much earlier for me by the King Himself, Jack Kirby. The proof is, as usual, in his greatest comic book work of the '70's, the Eternals. Now that's some serious Intelligent Design!!!
