I love that banana bit, classic creationism. To bad that the banana that we enjoy today is in fact the result of domestication of a long period of time of a wild variant(the tooth-shattering pea-sized seeds in wild ancestor are a great lil' prank). I appreciate the zeal, but bats have no eyes? Just one picture would crush this hypotesis. Also they use sonar, not radar. Not trying to be an ass here, but we atheists must represtnt our selves with accurate arguments, lest they be used to damage our credibility.

2. Interview with Dan Dennett on Danish TV

My thoughts exactly aparlak.
Now, on the subject of memes: could they be likened to some form of computer virus that uses interface between CPUs to spread and insert new programming into the recipient? Am I anywhere near the mark? I guess I have always thought of the brain as a blank hard drive (I am well aware of the stupendous oversimplification here) and conditioning, experience as well as information gathered as a form of software. Now my fellow nigh-hairless apes, please enlighten me.
