Chickens with Teeth
How can anyone deny that the development of life on earth is based on the ideas embodied by the theory of evolution? We have a tail bone, but no tail. Chickens have bumps, but no teeth. Come on! Even the freakin Pope has said that religion shouldn't be taught in science class. Sometimes it amazes me how seriously people can take themselves- we are all too good, too unique, too special, too grand to have gotten here the same way as every other lowly animal, wait that implies that we are animals too, I didn't mean that...
Personally I take great comfort in thinking that every hair, every cell, every protein, every molecule, nay every damn atom in my body came from a star or supernova. Isn't it almost supernatural to think that the beauty of life wouldn't be here if it weren't for one of the most violently explosive phenomena known to man?

Neat. It's a little strange that they can give a virus to something that makes it grow teeth. Like getting a disease that makes you temporarily grow an extra finger. But I suppose that diseases already make you "grow" warts, spots and other bumps.....
