The Australian Approach (sorry it's a little long) :)?

Do not apologise for it being 'a little long' (something one should never do under any circumstances anyway). A belter and a whizzer. It has been ages since I had a good laugh - you managed it. Thanks.

Creationism is a money making fiction that parasitises Christianity and Islam, possibly Judaism as well. It is a fraud. To keep the business going, they will tell any lie, disparage any person who disagrees with them, since that person's influence might make some of the people who buy the magazines and other media they circulate drop out as subscribers. "At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilised races of man will almost certainly exterminate, and replace, the savage races throughout the world." This is certainly true in a sense. 150 years ago, when Darwin was about, the people who he characterised as not being civilised were mostly illiterate and had no central governments. This, technically, is a old definition of lack of civilisation. Now the people whose recent ancestors were at best illiterate farmers are engineers and medicos, literate farmers with a good idea of advanced farming methods, road builders, bridge builders, taxi drivers, merchants, you name it. Ndugu Machagge, who I once knew well is an electrical engineer, the son of a barely literate widow, his father was a laborer but died young. Their governments might not be up to much in some places, but they vary from utterly incompetent and corrupt to good. Take a look at the tiny country of Botswana in Africa for an example of a place that is decently run. Even some less successful countries like Tanzania might still be "third world" but they are a heck of a lot better than others, and if you look at quality of government, they'd stack up pretty well against almost all European governments of 500 years ago. So in a sense Darwin was right. The civilised races have replaced the uncivilised, it's just that the civilised are the descendants of the uncivilised.
