Wait for the Crocoduck



Cameron's argument in favor of faith contains an enormous logical hole. He points out that evolution does not make sense because the Crocuduck does not exist, which is foolish, as we all know, because although the Crocuduck is extinct, there is documentation of its existence that dates back to the earliest civilizations. A nursery rhyme written on the side of a child's bowl in 800 BC describes the dangers of the crocuduck. It appears here, translated from the Etruscan:
Crocuduck is good to eat.
Crocuduck is good for you.
Stew up some crocuduck.
The crocuduck is not a good pet.
The crocuduck is a danger.
Evade, children, evade the duck-crocked maw.
Eat the crocuduck. Do not
Let it eat you.
Children.

Children.

The religious significance of the crocuduck has been depicted in numerous ancient societies, including the Babylonians and Egyptians. Perhaps it is because of his narrowly Christian perspective that Cameron is not aware of the history of this venerated animal.



Intelligent design or evolution. Phooey. The more important question is, did the crocoduck quack or growl?
