  1. That any person can live through the current pandemic, observing how the virus mutates, and gives rise to new variants, and not believe in evolution, is dumbfounding. Because viral replication takes place in hours, not decades, as human reproduction does, we can observe evolution that takes millions of years for humans, occur in a few months, for a virus. By sequencing the viral variants, we can easily determine which variant gave rise to the next, and see that evolution is a branching tree, not linear. There was an evolutionary biologist, who believed humans were created de novo, without evolving from another species. His name was Trofim Lysenko , and following his ill conceived ideas held back Soviet biology and medicine a full century. If fools like Walker get to dictate what may be taught in schools, the US education system will be even more backwards, than it is now.
