Not theology." Ah... The age old question. Who made us and why? Too bad we never covered this in biology. It is also too bad that there is no good place in school to have these kinds of discussions, because I think that a class based solely on developing a good argument and supporting it with details would... wait. Isn't that what research and debate is supposed to be? What happened there? “This is biology, dude. Not theology.”

That was my favourite part about Biology. There's always that one kid. “Nonetheless, it’s still fun to hear that one kid in the back sheepishly invoke a supernatural power!”
