re: #397 TradeBait

My faith lies in the fact that truth doesn’t need to be defended by the religious zeal so often demonstrated by evolution apologists. If any principle is true, it will be vindicated by the underlying empirical evidence. Unlike you and your vaunted peers, I don’t fear exposure to any idea.

The only reason evolution is being defended with zeal is because of the constant attacks it’s come under by creationists, as well as the wide spread misunderstanding of the theory by intelligent people who were just never taught it properly, such as me. Now that I’ve taken some time to educate myself to better understand evolution, yes- I’ll promote it with zeal because it’s true. To those who are under-informed on the matter, I’ve tried to enlighten. To those who are close minded, I confront them with facts, just like Sala, even though we know they’ll dismiss our comments and facts out of hand.
