"The Galapagos Sting"

by Tom Graffagnino


"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth...and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters..." —Genesis 1: 1....2


"Any group with authority to tell a culture's dominant creation story functions as a kind of priesthood, defining what shall be deemed ultimate truth."
—Nancy Pearcy


"I suppose every age has its particular fantasy; ours is science."
—Malcomb Muggeridge


"The Galapagos Sting"

The Galapagos Sting....
Where LORD Darwin is King,
   And His Word is the Law of the Land.
Evolution's Defenders,
The Inherit the Winders,
    Have drawn their line
    In the sand.

Their theory's quite hollow,
   But our children must swallow,
     Their soup, cooked up,
      Pre-biotic.
While the game to defame,
    God's Word is the same...
     Their intention?
      Uniquely quixotic.

The Gospel? Demoted.
Evo-Priests now have noted,
   That miracles simply can't be!
Their minds? Tightly closed.
Revelation? Opposed.
   Dogmatists barking up
     a dead tree.

This is Science!
This is Reason!
   Great Logic's in Season!
Lucky mud...over time...
    Man Alive!
A "Creator"?....Oh, please!
   
Sir, get up from your knees!
In this land where just top dogs survive.

Now the culture's kow-towing,
   And the children all bowing,
    Before Darwin's Gold Altar of Chance.
"Charlie D" is the Head,
Evolution's the Bread....
   And the Wine that we sip?...
   Happenstance.

Their Doctrine's most queer....
Their Cosmology? Dear.
   To the Naturalist Creed they're devoted.
They're High Priests in the Know,
    Who just want to show,
     That we're here because
      Nothing exploded!

Since that Bang which was BIG,
    They continue to dig,
     To find fossils and links
     That are missing.
Priests of Darwin are sure,
    In their Faith quite secure....
God's miraculous Hand?
    They're dismissing.

And their Creation Tale?
Well,...It's growing quite stale.
   It's a Dogma
   That may well be doomed.
It's The Great Contradiction
A Unique Science Fiction...
   The Religion of
    Nothing went BOOM!


"...the doctrine of evolution has swept the world, not on the strength of its scientific merits, but precisely in its capacity as a Gnostic myth. It affirms, in effect, that living beings, created themselves, which is, in essence, a metaphysical claim....Thus, in the final analysis, evolutionism is in truth a metaphysical doctrine decked out in scientific garb."
—Wolfgang Smith

"That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched--this we proclaim concerning the Word of life. The life appeared; we have seen it and testify to it, and we proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us."
1 John 1: 1, 2

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning."  —John 1 : 1, 2
