Why even try to make up jokes about this?

So... why do monkeys eat them from the other side?

So does the existence of Durian fruit prove that God is angry with us for some reason?

I think the point that should be taken from this is, how many other religious beliefs are misinterpretations of evolution or some other scientifically explained phenomenon?

And to turn things around, how many loosely explained scientific theories (of which there are many) are misinturpretations for what could in turn only have a spiritual answer?

Perhaps this is the problem with using the same tool to solve all problems. Science can say to religion: ahah, that's evolution, not God making you a snack food! But then (non-orthodox) religion could say back to the science: perhaps evolution was pre-designed (by God, the Creator, etc) to work so well so that we could survive, after all, all fruit might have been more Durian-like instead!

Is it not just a different way of looking at the same thing?

hi!

I saw a comment you posted on [livejournal.com profile] deliciouspear's journal recently and I just knew I needed to friend you since I appreciated what you said so much. Just wanted to give you the heads up that I'm adding you to my friend's list.
