I ask Mr. Veverka to make me an orchid. He must be able to

To The Daily Sun,

Let's correct the record, after Mr. Veverka leaves his mess all over the letters section of The Daily Sun, once again. As he incorrectly stated to the contrary, no one is saying that he or his hard-left, atheist fellow travelers are engaged in a "vast conspiracy to oppress the truth" regarding their promotion of the "evolutionist theories". Not once have I ever read that's the assertion of believers in God and creation.

Pay attention, Mr. Veverka, because here's what we are saying: Your refusal to accept the truth of a higher power is based solely on your desire to not be held accountable to that higher power for your behavior.

Your choice not to believe in intelligent design must mean that you believe everything is, because of something opposite of intelligent, i.e. some unintelligent force. And since you personally are obviously much more intelligent than any unintelligent force responsible for it all, I have a request for you: please make me an orchid. You must be able to make me an orchid, Mr. Veverka, because you are so much more intelligent that the 'un'intelligent force you claim is responsible for everything. Oh, you can't make me an orchid? I'm disappointed in you, Mr. Veverka, but I'm not surprised. That's because, using accepted scientific methods of observation and experimentation, you can't provide one shred of observable evidence of evolutional change of kind.

We don't all get to have our own truth. The little boy whose mother told him not to touch the hot stove also thought he was smarter than his mother. It really doesn't matter whether you believe in God or not, Mr. Veverka. Just like the little boy, if he persists in believing that it's okay for him to have his own truth, he's going to get burned.

That goes for all of creation, including you and me...
