The way I understand evolution is that there were happy monkeys eating bananas and playing Tarzan (no, I didn't say Tarjan) in the trees all day. Then, one morning, the chief monkey told his son: " Pat, if you don't get off that tree, I'll ask God to turn you into a televangelist! " The rest is, as we say, history. Pat Robertson never got over and vowed to dedicate his life to the cause of anti-monkey bigotry. It's actually a very sad story of self-hatred. When George W. Bush gave him a banana in the White House, the story has it that Pat Robertson looked at it, muttered "Dad, forgive me for my sins," and wept.
So, Sariel, please show some kindness, if that sentiment is not completely alien to you.
