    It's a parody of something Chris Cogan wrote. It's one of her two
    ways of responding when she gets mad and can't think of an answer.
    The other one is a boilerplate post about how she has a right to her
    opinion.

    I am aware that the conclusions arrived at in this work will be denounced by some as highly irreligious; but he who denounces them is bound to shew why it is more irreligious to explain the origin of man as a distinct species by descent from some lower form, through the laws of variation and natural selection, than to explain the birth of the individual through the laws of ordinary reproduction.
