The Living Waters is releasing their own edited and abridged version of Darwin’s Origin of Species. Yes, you read that correctly. The people who believe the modern banana was designed by god (YouTube link) as the perfect food for humans are going to be selling a mutilated copy of Darwin’s book in an effort to refute evolution.

This special 280-page edition not only contains an abridged Origin of Species but also has a 50-page Introduction that reveals the dangerous fruit of evolution, Hitler’s undeniable connections to the theory, Darwin’s racism, and his distain for women. It counters the claim that creationists are “anti-science” by citing numerous scientists who believed that God created the universe—scientists such as Einstein, Newton, Copernicus, Bacon, Faraday, Pasteur, and Kepler. It has many original graphics and (as it says on the back cover) is designed for use in schools, colleges, and prestigious learning institutions. The back cover lists the above information as well as saying the book contains “Information on Intelligent Design vs Evolution.” We want to get one million copies into the hands of students and professors in colleges and universities throughout the U.S. Let’s see if they try to ban Darwin’s Origin of Species. That would be interesting.

The 50 page introduction can be downloaded for free at their web site, and, of course, I’m reading it. I should say I am trying to read it. I made it as far as page 10, and then my head threatened to explode, and I had to close the file. My tolerance level for this kind of stuff is pretty low.

Maybe I’ll try reading it again tomorrow … or maybe I will start working on my own version of the Bible. I’m pretty sure it isn’t under copyright anymore, and I’m fairly certain I could improve on the current text.

And for the record, I posted a photo of true banana (created by evolution or god as you see fit to believe), and perhaps it’s time to revisit that post.
