Evolution Schmevolution on the Daily Show

[Vastavus]

John Stewart is my hero. I will be waking up tired as heck, but I will watch every one of them. I love this man.

 

[TeddyKGB]

Bill Dembski is supposed to appear on The Daily Show Monday, 9-12. I will be rooting for him.

To do what? Score cheap points on a satirical cable news show?

Well, yeah, but for creationism as an ideological movement, the belief is there is no such thing as bad publicity.

 

[PulpitFiction]

Gravity isn't the same because its not a living thing.

Wait... are you implying that evolution is a living thing?

 

[Vastavus]

Wait... are you implying that evolution is a living thing?

....well, ever since The Fall......

 

[FSTDT]

This is going to be great.

I remember a few years ago, the Daily Show interviewed (if I remember correctly) Carl Baugh and his claim that human footprints had been found in dinosaur footprints. It had this great graphic outlining a the inner human foot, and another squiggly weird looking squarish shape outlining the "dinosaur" print. Excellent satire

 

[Mongoose]

Oh man. I have little doubt that this won't have a powerful impact on the controversy. Remember the show Crossfire? John Stewart got that show cancelled just by slamming it on his own show.

This will be awesome.

Why?

 

[Brennin]

Why?

You know I like Bill.

 

[Nymphalidae]

You know I like Bill.

What, do you date him or something?

 

[Brennin]

What, do you date him or something?

There is no need to get jealous, E.

 

[Nymphalidae]

There is no need to get jealous, E.

I was hoping Dembskii was single, but if you two are butt-budies I won't interfere.

 

[Valkhorn]

I was hoping Dembskii was single, but if you two are butt-budies I won't interfere.

I'm giving you reps for that...

 

[Brennin]

I was hoping Dembskii was single, but if you two are butt-budies I won't interfere.

I'll remind you of that comment when we are making out.

Yes, they had him watching the Flinstones and claiming it to be how mankind really lived. Not exactly creationism's finest day.

Oh man. I have little doubt that this won't have a powerful impact on the controversy. Remember the show Crossfire? John Stewart got that show cancelled just by slamming it on his own show.

Well, Jon slammed it on the Crossfire show, too. That was truly a great moment.

 

[Nymphalidae]

Hope springs eternal, eh R?

 

[Brennin]

Hope springs eternal, eh R?

You know I am an optimist.

 

[Nymphalidae]

You know I am an optimist.

The glass is always half full, until I come along and knock it over.

 

[Brennin]

The glass is always half full, until I come along and knock it over.

Sounds right.

I also love the press release about his "Evolution Schmevolution":

"Evolution Schmevolution" will explore:
......
* Should your child's curriculum really be decided by experts in their
respective fields?

I heart the Daily Show

Well, Jon slammed it on the Crossfire show, too. That was truly a great moment.

I've got that clip on my hard drive. It made me proud to be an American.
