Happy 200th Birthday!!!

Today is what would've been the 200th birthday of both Abraham Lincoln and Charles Darwin. Neither men have ever met each other during their lives but their words and deeds live on all over the world. They both also pissed off the southern states in different ways. The South hated the fact that Lincoln freed the slaves with his Emancipation Proclamation. And the same area hated Darwin's Theory of Evolution, which not only resulted in the notorious Scopes "Monkey Trial" in Tennessee but it still persists to this day. ("Intelligent Design" is nothing more than Creationism that's been dressed up in scientific terminology.)

By the way, the BBC's website has an interesting quiz about both men on its website today. I scored 7 out of 10, which makes me "created equal" according to that quiz.
