Another joke (or two) at the expense of the Creationists this week. It’s funny; I’m not on some big anti-Creationist jag in my daily life these days, at least not more than usual. It does happen. Sometimes I spend a coupla days pretty worked up. Not recently, though. And yet, when it’s cartoon-makin’ time, it just seems to come out. Ah well.
Ma, get the shotgun, the cartoon’s in the carrots again!
It’s dedicated to Mike Callies.
- So the conversation that inspired this one went like this: I was bitching to Mike about a book I’d bought off Amazon, that purported to be a cryptozoological investigation of living pterosaurs in New Guinea, but turned out to be Creationist screed for about half of it.
Mike: What the hell? Where in the Bible does it say anything about living pterosaurs?
Me: Well, there’s the part where the Apostle Paul flies to Thessaly, in this rock thing on the back of a giant pterosaur. After the pterosaur says a quip of some kind.
Mike: “It’s a living.”
Me: (laughter)
Mike: “Oh, my aching back!”
- The quotes around “University” are a cheap shot, even for me. This I admit. Not taking it back, though.
- The spellcheck for WordPress doesn’t accept “pterosaur”! Go to hell, spellcheck for WordPress!
