Never mind the evidence

A brisky dawn run along the chilly loch-side at last.
In the last couple of days of admittedly Noah-style rainfall I have chatted politely with two respectable ladies who calmly denied the existence of evolution because it’s not in the Bible, and  I’ve also been accused of being wicked in a Daily Telegraph comment forum. The latter narrative was even harder to follow than that of the two ladies, but I think it because I suggested that there is justification in the global protest against corporate greed. Maybe the Enlightenment was just a dream, and we are still in the Middle Ages after all.
