You're a Snake

(8)

Well folks I thought I was thru for tonight but I just saw on The Tonight Show that President Bush has endorsed 'Intelligent Design' as an idea which ought to be discussed in the classroom. I have no problem with that. I think that the prez and I are in agreement here. And by the way, I saw on the 700 Club recently that Pat Robertson has officially denounced 'Creationism' in favor of 'Intelligent Design.' Bravo, Pat! You go fella! I was especially impressed by Pat's admission that the Universe was not created six thousand years ago, but was much older. I also liked Pat's characterization of the Universe as, 'beautiful.' My question to Pat is this: Have you been doing Acid, Pat? Or have you been viewing Hubble Photographs? Which? Both!?

I wondered what the Designer of the Universe would think of George and Pat's endorsement and so I conjured up an interview:

me: Have you heard the good news?
lucifer: What good news?
me: Both Pat Robertson and President Bush have endorsed the concept of Intelligent Design!
lucifer: That's good news?
me: Relatively good news.
lucifer Please explain.
me: It could have been worse. They could have endorsed Genesis.
lucifer: Genesis?
me: The Very Old and Odius Testament.
lucifer: Forgive me but we seem to be in total disconnect.
me: You never read Genesis?
lucifer: Never.
me: Too bad. You're in it. You're a snake.
