    See Here for DT Article[^] Americans are one third of the mass of humanity? Possibly, I have seen some big people there. Half of British Adults don't believe in Evolution? Really? I didn't realise there were so many stupid people. Although a lot of them will be prepared to believe in a sky pixie or some other shite like that. Shark Bay in Australia is now called “Safety Beach”. So it is.[^] I shall not bother going there then. Had it been Shark Bay I would have gone but now the fluffy pussy brigade have taken over the Ocker Homeland I suppose it is just a matter of time before MM is wearing a tutu and sipping a pink gin.

                The answer to my next question may determine that. How do you explain the vast multiplicity of life, its relative nearness of one species to another, and the universality of certain biological and biochemical functions even amongst very disparate genera? If not evolution, then what? Space Pixies and Magic Dust?

                  The US is filled with fundamentalist religious types, the UK used not to be. Unfortunately we have let in so many that are afflicted with that most awful of mental disorders, religion, and let them breed and brainwash their children, that the number of people who have any ability for scientific thought processes or are capable of reason and argument based on evidence and fact are reducing.

                          Completely different subjects as Wand Erection and Bieber fever are tastes in music and the idiots that front them Evolution has many different theories which require thought / understand and interest.

                                No, there is only one theory of evolution. And to believe in it requires very little thought or understanding. You believe in gravity I take it. That is only a theory of course and I doubt you have studied it in any detail either.

                                  Did you just use a fundamentalist style statement? To paraphrase what you wrote: You don't believe what I believe, therefore you are stupid. Dave, I thought you were more well spoken than that.

                                  It was broke, so I fixed it.

                                      Yes the Chinese or the Russians don't dispute it.

                                      That is not proof. I have a theory that my dog can talk, but they haven't disputed that either so it must be true.

                                        No, there is only one theory of evolution. And to believe in it requires very little thought or understanding. You believe in gravity I take it. That is only a theory of course and I doubt you have studied it in any detail either.

                                        But this still doesn't answer the question due to my ignorance on the subject of evolution does this make me thick? Again my ignorance is due to my lack of interest in this theory.

                                          Did you just use a fundamentalist style statement? To paraphrase what you wrote: You don't believe what I believe, therefore you are stupid. Dave, I thought you were more well spoken than that.

                                          I believe the Earth travels round the sun. The church said it didn't and many people believed the church. And that is the problem. Religion is a barrier to intelligent thought and scientific reasoning. Just because it was written in a book don't make it so. (qv the same is true of science, and the default position is to say I Don't Know, but the current theory that fits the facts and observed evidence is [INSERT CURRENT THEORY] For many years teachers told children to sit upright else they would damage their backs, but this has since been found out to be rubbish and that slouching is better. However the dogma persists and children are being damaged by ignorance.
