   So I pointed out the fact that you believe a myth, and you went back   
   and re-read that myth instead of looking into any of the points I made.   
      
   Well. I am not impressed. Sorry.   
      
   Do you know what circular reasoning is? Because that's what you're   
   insisting here.   
      
   Your perceptions were challenged. Instead of investigating that   
   challenge you referenced your own perceptions in order to validate   
   your perceptions.   
      
   Again:  Stalin and later Mao banned evolution. They outlawed it. And   
   they were in agreement with Darwin. The people who hated evolution to   
   the point of outlawing it were in agreement with Darwin.   
      
   APPLY what Darwin thought to the real world and you come up with a   
   VERY different answer than the one that was implanted in your skull.
