Take That!

Washington Post columnist Charles Krauthammer, who you may recall annoys me from time to time, has a fantastic column today slamming the intelligent design folks. It's a delight to read.

A brief highlight:
How ridiculous to make evolution the enemy of God. What could be more elegant, more simple, more brilliant, more economical, more creative, indeed more divine than a planet with millions of life forms, distinct and yet interactive, all ultimately derived from accumulated variations in a single double-stranded molecule, pliable and fecund enough to give us mollusks and mice, Newton and Einstein? Even if it did give us the Kansas State Board of Education, too.
