Catching a spot of morning sunlight in the studio, Baby recharges his batteries, even as energy consumption in the blogosphere soars amidst heated debate over whether he who made the Lamb made thee.
"Entering the debate over the teaching of origins for the first time, President George Bush today said he sees 'no evidence of intelligent design in America's public schools,'" reports Scott Ott of ScrappleFace, weighing in on the blogosphere's hottest topic of debate* this morning -- blogged here yesterday -- with his usual flair for killing the entire flock of birds with one stone:
"A lot folks claim that the public school system is irreducibly complex, so there must have been an intelligent designer," said Mr. Bush, "But I believe our public schools advance by mutation and random chance. They have evolved into an unwieldy beast with an insatiable appetite."
The president, a professed Christian, said his only hope for a better future in American education rests on his faith in "the survival of the fittest."
*GW has set off a blogospheric firestorm. "Intelligent Design" is #1 in Technorati's "Top Searches This Hour" (9 a.m. ET).
Note: Blog post title is from Romans 8:22 of the King James Version of the Bible.
I agree with W. Our only hope of survival is that we remain the fittest. As a guide to steer our course thru life show me something better than the wisdom of the ages as expressed in the Judo-Christian traditions. Whether God made man or man made God, we need a star to steer by.
