OVERWHELMING EVIDENCE
(to the tune of “Ain’t No Mountain High Enough”)

Listen, people
Evolution’s true
We can promise you,
Cause we’ve got evidence, people.

You say our textbooks lie,
But only in your eyes,
Cause you’re creationists,
While we are scientists.
At the end of the day,
The truth is what we say ­

Cause we’ve got
Overwhelming evidence,
Overwhelming evidence,
Overwhelming evidence ­
To prove that our theory’s true.

Oh, the peppered moths
Aren’t where we thought
It’s a big mistake
And the photos are fake.
We know it’s unreal,
But it’s no big deal ­

Cause we’ve got
Overwhelming evidence,
Overwhelming evidence,
Overwhelming evidence ­
To prove that evolution is true.

Haeckel’s embryos
Are not the way it goes.
Fish and human parts
Are different from the start;
But the story’s intact
And evolution’s a fact ­

Cause we’ve got
Overwhelming evidence,
Overwhelming evidence,
Overwhelming evidence ­
So we don’t have to listen to you!

Overwhelming evidence,
Overwhelming evidence,
Overwhelming evidence ­
So we don’t have to listen to you!

GIVE ME THAT OLD TIME EVOLUTION
(to the tune of “Give Me That Old Time Religion”)

Give me that old time evolution,
Give me that old time evolution,
Give me that old time evolution.
It’s good enough for me.

It was good enough for Darwin,
It was good enough for Darwin,
It was good enough for Darwin,
So it’s good enough for me.

It’s become my religion,
It’s become my religion,
It’s become my religion,
And it’s good enough for me.

You can’t teach any other,
You can’t teach any other,
You can’t teach any other,
Darwin’s good enough for me.

Give me that old time evolution,
Give me that old time evolution,
Give me that old time evolution.
It’s good enough for me.

I've always hated "Give Me That Old Time Religion," but "Give Me That Old Time Evolution" is very nice! Davidcrandaddy

Hmmm...I read that link and laughed a while. It's quite profound when you think about it. That rapper is not saying anything that the academic intellectuals aren't saying, he just used profanity to say it. His attitude is very honest and straightforward, rather like Dawkins. The guys who tried to do a hatchet job on Sternberg, didn't this rapper express their feelings for them?avocationist

you notice that site, on their front page links to infidelguy (a COMPLETE nutjob who spends every waking min doing online 'talk shows' where he tries to debunk religion, mainly christianty- tho listening to him for 5 minutes, its clear he has zero knowledge on biblical issues or religious issues in general. i thought darwinism wasnt inherently atheistic and materialistic? youll also notice the first post on their site complains about "fruitcakes" who believe in the rapture (aka, those who believe in the bible). again, i thought it all wasnt inherently materialistic and atheistic? also- you get to see both sides. the lyrics dr dembski painted are light hearted and there are no attacks- the song you link to is full of profanity, personal attacks, and even violence. again, i see that one side is full of rage while the other side seems to be the very opposite. ive never seen so many people so confident in their historical theory that theyre so full of hate.jboze3131
