So let's ask Walker, since his ancestry comes from Africa: if there are black Americans, how can there still be people in Africa? Also, since many Americans have ancestors that came from Europe, how can there be Europeans in this modern day?

Even closer: did his parents die because he was born? Does he have siblings? How in the world can that be?

Really, since it's so easy to learn what evolution is and is not, I don't have any patience left for anyone who seems "confused" or otherwise refuses to understand how it works.

Wouldn't it be nice if anti-evolutionists knew how blindingly stupid they sound.
