The 'evolution' of EVOLUTION?

 
Picture
​The 'evolution' of EVOLUTION?

While I do not believe in the monkey ancestor kind of evolution I do believe life certainly evolves.  

Let me share 'my' scientific findings from my exhaustive study here at  the Back Pew Institute for Common Sense.

Picture
Exhibit A (Valentines Day)
THEN: On February 14, 1984 I bought my wife an engagement ring, flowers and proposed marriage.  Good news for me Mary was very excited about spending the rest of her life with ME!  Til death do us part.. thank you  very much.
NOW: On February 13th 2016 my wife informed me she was going to pick up some flowers for my 86 year old mom for Valentines Day.  I replied "Great, and while you're at it, pick up something nice for yourself from me.. cuz I like ya."

Picture
Exhibit B (Romance)
THEN: Mary and I were married in August 1984.  The newlywed excitement of starting our lives together, holding hands, the excitement of the kiss, and all the other 'fringe benefits' of being married were truly wonderful.
​
NOW: Just the few years ago I remember trying to kiss my wife Mary on the lips before I headed out the door to work.  But she turned her head at the last moment offering me only to her cheek to kiss.  So I said to my bride "I noticed you turned away", and she replied matter of factly.. "yes I did not want you to wreck my lips."  Wreck her lips?  I was her husband wanting a simple kiss, not a zombie wanting to eat her lips.

Picture
Exhibit C (Sports)
THEN: March Madness Year 1 was a simple game where dunking was not possible as the hunched over Neanderthal players had little to no vertical jump compounded by using a ball which technically was a medium sized boulder.
NOW: The game now is fast, the players tall and athletic, the action is high flying and the courts are free of dinosaur droppings.


Picture


Exhibit D
 (Me)

THEN: When I was a kid I could spend hours drawing cartoons.
NOW: Hmmm, never mind that is still what I like to do.

Picture
Exhibits E-Z (God)​
THEN & NOW: Outside of all the above 'very scientific' examples of  evolution and in the spiritual realm let's be clar.. our God does not evolve nor does He  need  to.  God is  timeless, and  so are his truths.  

It appears society has chosen to travel down a progressive road of self-enlightenment at 90mph in a Woodstock like hippy van mind set.  Ironically the world judges Christians as.. judgmental, and God's  timeless loving truths (The  Bible) are questioned or outright dismissed.


This truth of our 'never-needing-to-evolve creator' and His perfect love and grace is the compass and  solid rock we can count on.  Please share this often with this ever changing/evolving tumultuous doubting world.
 
Blessings

Jeff

Hi Jeff,
This is a heads up .
I am color blind. This is probably not the first time I have difficulty reading portions of text on your cartoons because your choice text color on top of your color choice for background under the text. This time it applied mostly to Scripture references which I consider the most important content . I can't tell you what colors to use , but only say a reasonable contrast in either range of difference in colors between text and background or a contrast in shades of light and dark colors of text and background. Perhaps a little Google search would give you some guidance to helping us color blind folk . There are lots of us .

PS: looks like your Packers have a good start to the season . Would love to see a rerun of your Vikings/Packers rivalry cartoons.
