Ebert Explains Creationist Article
The other day I posted “Roger Ebert on Creationism,” where the film critic gave a Q & A. I took it as satire but it led others to wonder if Ebert was being serious or not. Well, satire was certainly his purpose.
But the purpose of this blog entry is not to discuss politics (a subject banned from the blog). Nor is it to discuss Creationism versus the theory of evolution (that way lurks an endless loop). It is to discuss the gradual decay of our sense of irony and instinct for satire, and our growing credulity.
