MT @Green_Footballs
I wonder if all the conservatives yelling that Ebola might become airborne realize it means they now believe in evolution?

In Which My Tweet About #Ebola and Evolution Goes Viral
Creationists get upset
By Charles Johnson

I’m going to kick off the week by humble-bragging about this off-handed tweet I posted over the weekend that has now gone viral (ironic considering the subject), with more than 7200 retweets as I write this and no sign of slowing down yet.

...

Two other common responses from creationists:

We don't deny micro-evolution, just macro-evolution. If Ebola evolves, it's only micro-evolution.
If Ebola ever becomes airborne, that won't be evolution -- it will be mutation.

Both of these talking points are well-worn creationist dodges, and they’re both bogus.

...
