Theft of Darwin fish shows fear of science

Editor, the Tribune: This is an open letter to the person who removed the Darwin fish from the back of my green Ford Explorer around noon on March 18 in the Sam’s Club parking lot.

You are a coward, a thief and, I suspect, a Christian.

You are a coward because you did not have the courage to act in my presence, when you feared you would have been challenged.

You are a thief because you knowingly took the property of another without permission.

I suspect you are a Christian because, in my experience, only Christians so fear the Darwin fish and are so threatened by the scientifically valid theory of evolution that it represents that they feel justified in violating one of their own commandments to protect their superstitious beliefs. I refer you to Exodus 20:15 and Deuteronomy 5:19.

I have news for you. First, we live in the United States of America, not the United States of Jerry Falwell. We are free to speak our own minds. I refer you to the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

Second, the Darwin fish you stole has already been replaced. After leaving Sam’s, I bought a replacement and installed it on my Explorer that afternoon.

Last, I will not let Christian fascists such as you deny me my rights.

Some people are just so blind and deaf, just as Jesus said.
I hope this fool realizes that his darwin fiish cannot save him.

My note; 

It was probably some young kid and not a Christian either. The kids here like to take magnets, car model tags, etc anything they can pull off the car. Sounds to me like a paranoid evolutionists.

That's true PR, but the fact still remains that he blamed Christians, he doesn't realize that he couldn't save his darwin fish, and his darwin fish as sure as the sun comes up everyday can never save him. He is angry at Christians in general, probably because he doesn't believe in God.

Sister, this is just a form of persecution against Christians. One day in the future, it will be a whole lot worse.

Sad but true DW.

Most such people are actually angry at themselves because they are so miserable in their own lives thinking that there is nothing for them beyond this short life that they know and that life is not satisfying enough for them either.

The dumbest part of that article is the assumption that Christians are afraid of science.  There are even Christians in the scientific community.  But this is the sort of thing that, if repeated often enough, people start to believe.
