The God of Evolution and the Horsefly
Time for another creature that most of us detest, but has some interesting information when it comes to creation and evolution : horseflies (or horse-flies). "Why do they call them horseflies, Cowboy Bob? The y're nowhere near a s big as a h orse ." That's because they're big Chicago Cubs fans, and do a great deal of shouting at the games, so their voices — "Fallacy of ambiguity on the word s horse and hoarse." Good call, you're learning. H orseflies got their name b ecause they bother horses. And livestock. And humans. Like mosquitoes, the female horsefly bites to get blood. Since this nasty thing is indiscriminate and persistent in its painful biting, it also can spread disease, so you should treat the bites . (They're sometimes called gadflies because of their annoyance, much like some anti-creationists I could name.) Don't be expecting to pull up stakes to escape them, since they're on most of the planet. Credit: Cente
