I Believe In Evolution, Except For The Whole Triassic Period

We can look at the fossil record and trace many of our genetic traits back to ancient species. In fact, scientific reasoning can explain nearly every stage of life from the Big Bang to the present day. I say "nearly" because the period that scientists claim lasted from roughly 205 to 250 million years ago, commonly known as the Triassic period, was quite obviously the work of the Lord God Almighty.

Don't get me wrong: I'm not one of those religious nut cases who denies that evolution is real. Of course evolution is real, just not during the "Triassic period."

This so-called Triassic period saw the formation of scleractinian corals and a slight changeover from warm-blooded therapsids to cold-blooded archosauromorphs. Clearly, such breathtakingly subtle modifications could only have been achieved by an active intelligence.

The secular Triassicists would have you believe that these changes were just the result of millions of years of nature favoring certain genes over others in order to adapt, the same way evolution worked prior to the Triassic. Obviously, that doesn't make any sense. Think about it: I'm supposed to believe that the same process that we know slowly changed us from simple bacteria into highly advanced reptiles over the course of the Paleozoic era is also responsible for turning us into highly advanced reptiles with different body lengths? Do these people ever pause to think how ridiculous they sound as they advance these theories?

Man was not an accident and reflects an image and likeness unique in the created order.

Mr. Brownback apparently has also never seen a Bonobo?

That's a new one.

...this is a joke, right?

Yeah. The Onion.

a couple of grains of Minute Rice in the salt shaker will help as well

What, there's a product that's supposed to do that? How strange. We use the uncooked-rice in the salt-shaker all the time.

(A detail of meaningless-unless-you're-me trivia: I learned the word "salt shaker" from the Buffistas. I've always read or heard stuff like "pass me the salt" and had to ask here what's the thing that holds the salt is called. It was probably one of the very first time, way in the TT mists of past boards, that I dared ask about an English word here.)

Yeah. The Onion.

Whew!
