The Flutter: Issue 4

Summary


One more thing about Mr. [Darwin] and his theory: We here in the SFMPB general offices have become aware of criticism being leveled at Chaz's legacy, and as he isn't here to answer those critics, we thought it proper if we did it for him. After all, without Darwin and his stunning revelation that humanity has evolved from humble beginnings - thereby implying that we may be capable of evolving much further; that there is possibly no limit to how far our species might progress - there would be little to be gained by investing our hopes in the Society For Making People Better. I personally, as the Founder and So-FarUnchallenged Grand Marshal of the SFMPB, consider Darwin to be our society's original inspiration, a central figure to the proposition that we have a fine and noble potential, if we so choose to aspire to it.

Our experience tells us that if there are even a few examples of such superficial tripe loose in the world, there is probably a powerful current of it flowing through society among people eager to believe in superficial tripe. We find it worthwhile to answer this tripe, even if that's all it is. For instance, if Mr. [Dennis Sewell]'s and the Meridian man's line of logic were applied throughout the realm of scientific discovery, we must blame Isaac Newton for every death by gravity, since Newton is the first to describe that natural phenomenon in depth. [Archimedes] must take the blame for Hitler's V-2 rockets and Saddam's SCUD missiles, as rocketry (not to mention atomic weaponry) could not exist without an understanding of "pi."
