You are probably using the works of the Phil Collins-led Genesis, when of course you need to go back further and compare and contrast with the Peter Gabriel era.

The main difference, as I see it, is the support for abortion provided in Origin of Species, and the support for Zionism (literally "apartheid") shown in Genesis.

If you get the unabridged version of Origin of Species, there's a line in the author's preface "Oh, yeah, also Genesis is wrong."

In fact the classic literary works that originated Species include H. M. Giger and H. P. Lovecraft. Lovecraft postulates gods called "the Old Ones" which are evil, live under the Pacific, and just one of them wakes up, it is all over for humanity. This contrasts with Genisis, which provides the arguement that You Can't Hurry Love, thus suggesting a different fate for mankind. However, Genisis is more tolerant of dissent and says that There Must Be Some Misunderstanding. Lovecraft's Old Ones don't care about misunderstanding. They devour things they misunderstand.

That's only in later editions, after Darwin started softening his position. The first edition preface actually states, "Genesis is wrong, therefore the entire Bible is invalid, I'm better than God, nyah nyah nyah. Also, gay sex is hawt. HAIL SATAN!"

To be fair, though, Darwin would only give permission for an Arabic translation if it contained printings on the lower right corners of the right pages such that, if you flipped through the book, you saw a cartoon of him kicking Mohammed in the crotch.

It's true. In fact, Darwin got so tired of the "it's Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve" argument that he wrote his own version of Genesis wherein he changed the names. He called it Gaynesis.

Little known fact: the original full title for "Origin of the Species" was "On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Fabulous Races in the Struggle for Life. Ta!"

Feer, both threads you've started on this forum have been to get help with homework, and in this thread you weren't even up-front about it.

What kind of idiotic assignment asks someone to compare the Book of Genesis to On the Origin of Species, anyway? Slap your teacher for me.

I don't think Feer is trying to find out if Darwin was gay for a homework assignment. I think he is stirring an anthill to see what happens, like an Old One would. I am leaving this thread before it's too late. Stay behind if you are not afraid of being squamous and non-Euclidean.

Strictly speaking, Darwin wasn't gay himself, but his harem of male sex slaves all were.
Interesting fact, he typed all of his writing on a manual typewriter, using only his prehensile tail.
