Hi to everybody...had a good night...woke to a lovely sunny day at 9.10 and half an hour later it was bucketing with rain...then it stopped and hubby went round for the paper, it poured a couple of minutes after he left and now is sunny again...good grief...that's really changeable!!
Saw Richard Dawkins's prog on Darwin last night on morals and altruism in the selfish gene...it seems, in his opinion, that we can transcend the savagery of the law of the jungle by using our brains...and was impressed by how kind and considerate human beings are to one another, but it's also clear that some brains have a lot more work to do to transcend our primal instincts with the tendency of many to attack their fellow human beings savagely still if feeling threatened...he did speak to one African Bishop in an evangelical church who is opposing the display of ancient bones and skulls of early hominids in East Africa because it is suggesting that they are our ancestors and he doesn't believe we descended from apes, but are a unique creation of God...so difficult to persuade some people that we are the fifth naked ape in a long line of evolutionary changes stretching back some three million years...next week will be fun, he's challenging the churches with their insistence of denying evolution and maintaining that creationism is right because their religion tells them it is...think he's going to be knocking his head against a brick wall again, but clearly, he's not going to give up...LOL...
Nothing else happening today...hubby's back to work tonight so normal routine resumes...hope you have a good day, are having some sun and great big hugs to one and all...
