D’oh! I Just Got Evangelized by Kirk Cameron!
I was crossing Shortlidge when a woman shoved a book at me and said, “Origin of Species?” I couldn’t really hear her explanation over my music, so I smiled, nodded, and took the book.
Once I got to Willard, I paged through it before class began. The book, framed as a commemoration of the 150th anniversary of the epochal work’s original publication, begins with an introduction written by Australian evangelist Ray Comfort.
Kirk Cameron (who you might know from my favorite Christian-apocalyptic series, Left Behind) describes Comfort’s intro as, a 50-page introduction, which gives the history of evolution, a timeline of Darwin’s life, Adolf Hitler’s undeniable connection with the theory, Darwin’s racism, his disdain for women, and Darwin’s thoughts on the existence of God.”
A quick Google search was all it took to find this gem of a YouTube video. Check it out to hear Camreon’s ingenious plot to overthrow the atheistic hegemony of America’s educational system.

Penn State and the Process of Life
To paraphrase Mark Twain: The reports of higher education’s death have been an exaggeration. American universities produce more research and relevant knowledge for the world at large than any other institutions I know of. Tuition may be too damn high, but over the long-run, undergraduate degrees are definitely worth the cost. But Penn State could be so much more. It used to be, I think.
