It's one of the most important books ever written. It presents one of the greatest ideas anyone has ever had. More than 20 years in the making, "On the Origin of Species" arrived on the scene in 1859. This 502 page book would go on to revolutionize how we understand the living world. It would introduce the general public to the simple process responsible for the remarkable history and astounding diversity of life: Evolution.
FYI. Loved this piece. I featured the work on a recent blog post of mine and gave you credit and a link back. I'll check out the rest of your gallery. Here's the post if you're interested: Darwin Day and Ken Ham’s pseudoscience
Well thanks, I really appreciate that. Glad you could make use of it. Darwin Day would be wonderful... unfortunately I couldn't imagine that ever happen in this country either. At least it could still be an unofficial movement. It would be nice to see an organized nationwide event... something like natural history museums offering free admission and setting up a special Darwin event/exhibit.
Sure thing. Yeah, it's pitiful that the U.S. doesn't already have some kind of celebration of Darwin's work. We claim to be the greatest nation in the world, yet we kowtow to religion and fail to wholly embrace evolution as a fucking fact and everything else that science has to offer.
I appreciate your enthusiasm for science! I wish people would get more excited about it! I don't even know that much yet, but I still love it! YEEEEAAAAAH SCIENCE! JOINMEINMYENTHUSIASUM.
