"Godfathers of The Priesthood"
(Darwinista Corleone)
or
"Your Mama's an Amoeba"  

 "'Meaningless! Meaningless!' says the Teacher.
         "Utterly meaningless!
            Everything is meaningless."--
(Ecclesiastes 1: 2)

"Natural selection, the blind, unconscious automatic process which Darwin discovered, and which we now know is the explanation for the existence and apparently purposeful form of all life, has no purpose at all."--Richard Dawkins

                                              ******

   "The materialist philosophy (whether true or not) is certainly much more limiting than any religion...The Christian is quite free to believe that there is a considerable amount of settled order and inevitable development in the Universe. But the materialist is not allowed to admit into his spotless machine the slightest speck of spiritualism or miracle...Spiritual doctrines do not actually limit the mind as materialistic denials." --GK Chesterton

                                                    *******     

   "You have to be educated into not seeing design around you in the natural world...You have to be either bullied or,...socialized out of it." -Mark Hartwig

"Godfathers of The Priesthood"
        
(Darwinista Corleone)

                   or

"Your Mama's an Amoeba"
(And Our Gnosis is Complete)


As he climbed the "Bully Pulpit"
To preach the Gospel to the class,
His captive audience bowed meekly...
Then Godfather said the Mass.


Darwinista Corleone
Called the "hit man" to his side....
"Identify 'the problem'....
Then just take 'em for a ride."

"Vito! Help our little friends here,
Understand our "Facts of Life"!
Mr. Darwin calls the shots now...
Help them, Vito, see the light!"

            **********

We've gathered all the information,
That supports our point of view...
We've declared it "Scientific!"
(So it's Absolutely True.)


Never mind those "minor glitches",
That crop up from time to time.
Boy, your Mama's an Amoeba,
Who popped up in ancient slime.

Then...by Chance...she started changing!
Accidentally growing feet...
Then some eyes and ears and noses!
Now our Gnosis is complete!

Puzzle pieces are still missing...
(In fact the ones we have don't link...)
But we've proven that they "ought to"...
Well,....they should, ....I guess,
....
(We think.)

OK,... "Proof " IS rather sketchy,
But our theory, boy, is true!
I swear to it on this Bible,
Just to prove it all to you!

Boy, don't question our credentials...
We've got papers..... peer-reviewed!
We're Godfathers of the Priesthood...
And Our Truth....
You can't refuse.

If you try to voice objection...
We've got ways to put you down.
We'll brand you "Fundamentalist!"
And then run you out of town.

We've got tar and we've got feathers,
We've got horse-heads for the bed....
Mafioso Darwinistas
Want your heart, boy, and your head.


And while it's not exactly kosher...
("Unscientific", if you will)
We'll snuff out the opposition...
Second thoughts must first be killed.

            *******

So, get used to it, paesano!
Mud to Man is just a FACT!
Boy, your kind just isn't welcome.
This is Our Bus!
Get in back!

Look, we're driving this dark limo;
So, boy, you'll have to sing our song!
These square wheels are inconvenient,
But we declare: "They can't be "wrong"!

            ********



Get on board this Bus of Wisdom...
Boy, we'll take you for a ride!
We're gassed up on Humanism;
High on fumes of Human Pride.

Now the pedal's to the metal...
Science-Gangsta rappers all.
Naked Apes waving diplomas,
Driving headlong toward the wall.

           ***********

Lord, "The Family" we're born into
Is full of dark and dirty lies...
And "Godfather Corleone"
Is a Master of Disguise.

Father God, help us see clearly
Where we sit in dark dismay.....
Help us see this Science Fiction:
   "DarwinTruth" we must obey.

Grace be ours, Lord, in adoption...
Give us Faith, Lord, to believe,
That your Son shines in this darkness,
Where poor shackled hearts do grieve.


   "We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. For in this hope we were saved." (Romans 8: 22-24a)


    "This is what God the LORD says---
       he who created the heavens and
         stretched them out,
       who spread out the earth and all
         that comes out of it,
       who gives breath to its people,
         and life to those who walk on it:
       'I, the LORD, have called you in
             righteousness;
        I will take hold of your hand.
        I will keep you and make you
          to be a covenant for the people
          and a light for the Gentiles,
         to open eyes that are blind,
         to free captives from prison
         and to release from the dungeon
            those who sit in darkness." (Isaiah 42: 5-7)


"He has sent me to proclaim freedom
    for the prisoners
  and recovery of sight for the blind,
   to release the oppressed,
     to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor."
                                      (Luke 4: 18b-19)
