And, lo, it was seen that Intelligent Design was persistent like unto a really bad rash, and so was revealed the True Doctrine which poureth forth like Lotion of Calamine upon the confused, who verily do resent it. Yet do others find value in the Doctrine.

Would those be Northern Hemisphere Finches or African Finches?

(And,as a side note, would they be laden or unladen?)

So many questions, so few answers!
