Here's a little known fact. Charles Robert Darwin (1809-1882), the most important biologist of all time, did not spend his entire life as an old man.

Quite the opposite: in fact most of the stuff that Darwin is best known for happened when he was disgustingly young

And another amazing fact: The Darwin Wicker Chair is still being sold all around the world! What an invention, eh? Darwin's heirs have been using the proceeds from the furniture sales to fund the destruction of Christianity ever since.

Have you put up your Darwin tree yet? Decorating it with descending ornaments?

Facts! Pssh, you can prove anything even remotely true with facts.

[God] is an infinite nothing from nowhere with less power over our universe than the secretary of agriculture.
- Prof. Frink

Lisa: Yes, but wouldn't you rather know the truth than to delude yourself for happiness?
Marge: Well... um.... [goes outside to jump on tampoline with Homer.]

Yeah Darwin Day really helps the whole Evolution is not a religion thing...

Why not just Science Day?

"...things I have neither seen nor experienced nor heard tell of from anybody else; things, what is more, that do not in fact exist and could not ever exist at all. So my readers must not believe a word I say." -Lucian on his book True History

"...They accept such things on faith alone, without any evidence. So if a fraudulent and cunning person who knows how to take advantage of a situation comes among them, he can make himself rich in a short time." -Lucian critical of early Christians c.166 AD From his book, De Morte Peregrini

There should be a science day. I think it no more supports evolution as a religion than Washington's birthday supports The United States of America as god's chosen nation or a Copernicus day making the sun the god of our solar system. Why should everyone cater to the offended or terminally illogical?

Facts! Pssh, you can prove anything even remotely true with facts.
