   Actually, you're not.
   Try watching Ben Stein's move: "Expelled."
   If you're sticking with simplistic idea that we come straight from apes, and think creationists are looking at old ideas, your theory is actually the one that's outdated. It's laughable that those who think they are progressive are actually the most closed minded. It's really a sad contradiction.

   Travis,

   A theory doesn't have to be old to be messed up. Take Scientology, for example. That's much more recent than creationism and evolution.

   Although the new creationism is a whole nother kettle of fish.

   If you're trying to discredit a t-shirt, you should at least stick to the facts of what the t-shirt says.

   Actually, I guess I was really taking aim at the comment on the shop description that says: "If you think that someone you love act like he or she descends directly from monkeys ... that's absolutely right!"

   It's the "absolutely right" part that struck a chord. Regardless of personal beliefs, the FACTS are that the twists and turns on the road of human history are still very much debatable. There are huge holes in the evolution theory that people want to overlook just so they have an answer, but as with much of science, the more we learn, the less we know.

   Great shirt Kalel!

   Oh, and Ben Stein has an ID bias. You won't enjoy it unless your into that sort of thing. Here's a good Ebert review if you're interested.
