Lately, the internet has been a-buzz with the news that Ray Comfort and Kirk Cameron – the bananic duo – plan to distribute special editions of Darwin’s On The Origin Of Species. The actual text is left (I hope) untouched, but the book has been gifted with a special, 50-page foreword by Ray Comfort. In it, he attempts to slander Darwin’s person by attaching him to racism and nazism, and I wouldn’t be surprised if there’s a CrocoDuck or two thrown in for good measure as well.
