A donviti thought for the day

Filed in National by on March 19, 2008

This really has to blow a hole in that partner for life thing this country gets all caught up in.  

I mean how funny is it that God created all these creatures in HIS LIKENESS and the only freaking one that is monogamous is a flat worm?

Once upon a time, biologists thought that there were a number of animals — eagles, geese and beavers among them — that remained monogamous throughout their lives. But DNA testing has shown that even the animals that look like the models of fidelity are getting out at night for a little extra on the side. And, according to a report filed by TODAY’s Natalie Morales, the list of officially monogamous creatures is down to one — that

freshwater flatworm that physically attaches itself

to a mate for life.

    God only created man in His image, not animals and other creatures.

    “God only created man in His image, not animals and other creatures.”

    Well, in that case, god must be pretty fucking ugly…

    Some birds mate for life too. Others just fvck everything that is not nailed down.

  5. donviti says:

    um, no dogless you are wrong. Read the story dude.

    THEY used to think that…

  6. donviti says:

    it’s funny the dude linking to this shows a verse from Genesis that says man and woman.

    call me crazy but later on in that little book doesn’t it talk about a woman being equal to a donkey. Basically a piece of property…

    hmmm, seems sort of contradictary don’t it?

    Let the Pick and Choosing begin people! I love the bible.

  7. thatselbert says:

    donviti, I wouldn’t call you crazy but I don’t have a clue where the Bible talks about a woman being equal to a donkey. Can anybody help here? On the web, I use Bible Gateway.

    While you are perusing the Old Testament can you catalogue all the genocide in Judges, explain why the Hebrew prophets were allowed to kill all their neighbors and steal their shit, why we can only eat seafood with gills, and why woman can’t go to church on their periods. And also please sacrifice a goat. Thank you.

  9. G Rex says:

    “…where the Bible talks about a woman being equal to a donkey.”

    How about in the Ten Commandments, where it says thou shalt not covet thy neighbor’s wife’s ass?

    I’m not sure about the SkyDad’s image thing, but there is empirical proof that we’re 98% made in the image of bonobos and chimps….

    Nice VC. And don’t forget gorillas and orangutans .

    It’s true what they say, Charles Darwin has a posse! But there you go with that evidence thing again. Like Aquinas said about science, it is religion’s biggest enemy.
