Just a thought...

Let me preface by saying I'm an animal lover. Moreso than a people lover, actually.

That said, today's Minneapolis Star Tribune has an editorial about yet another "mutant" frog being found in our fine state. This one has six legs, and is being cited as yet another cautionary tale against mankind's pollution of waterways.

However, as I understand the theory of Evolution, isn't the history of life replete with mutations that ultimately led to stronger species? Why is it that when it suits a particular ideology, such an occurrence is seen as yet another example of mankind's (and specifically capitalist's) destructive nature, yet on the other hand we're to believe that millions of years ago, similar mutations led to useful traits that eventually led to what you see in the mirror each day.

Just a thought.
