I'm so damn pissed right now. Just came home and when we pulled in behind my car I noticed it was missing the damn darwin fish I've had on there forever!!! Someone felt it was their place to violate my damn personal belongings. I don't give a damn what your beliefs are. MY property is MY property.
sorry for the rant. -------------------- |

That's pretty ballsy to take something off a car like that. And particularly intolerant. I have had a number of thought-provoking, intriguing, and downright offensive articles on my vehicles, including a French flag (right around the time Congress held its all-important vote to call french fries freedom fries), an "N-Chips" fish, and a "Middle Class White Guys for Barack Obama" bumper sticker without anyone taking them off or otherwise defacing my vehicle. And I live in Virginia, two hours from the capital of the old South!

Technically, I lost in this, not darwin. Leave him alone! Haha I think the great thing is, I don't make open statements about religion to anyone. A Darwin fish does not mean I don't believe in God or a higher being, it means that I believe in evolution. It is possible to believe in both.
I don't want this to turn into a religious argument so can we get a mod to close this if it starts? Thanks! -------------------- |

Darwin = Theory of Evolution I thought that the Fish = Jesus? Well that's what someone told me once. IDK crap about religion so i took her word on it. What does the regular fish mean?

What does the regular fish mean? Darwin Fish = Theory of Evolution also? yes the fish symbol originally started out as a christian symbol (not specifically jesus, but christianity as a whole) on the backs of cars ect. Somebody came up with the idea of mocking them by taking the fish and writing darwin in the middle and adding legs (legs = evolution of fish into walking, this is symbolism) so yes chrisitians take offense to it because it was designed to mock them This post has been edited by playr158: Jul 3, 2008 - 9:00 AM |

My mom probably did it!
But in all honesty you are sort of asking for someone to say or do something, I am all for free speech but still. It’s kind of like the rebel flag around here (Tennessee) some people could really just be supporting the history of this nation or making other statements. Your in Texas so I am sure you understand. Either way it ruffles a lot of feathers. This is why I choose to keep my car sticker free! I am a Christian but I will never put a fish on my car simply because I know that I do not represent my beliefs they way I should all the time. Some people look at these symbols way to much! Sorry for you car getting messed with THAT IS WRONG! I saw a guy about get shoot last week for walking up and sitting on another mans motorcycle. People these days.. What does FTW mean?

Reg Fish = Christianity
Darwin Fish = Theory of Evolution Jesus = Santa Clause, Tooth Fairy, Easter bunny, (ect.) Christian's stole your Darwin fish, to hinder the Theory of Evolution, so that they could spread Christianity easier, And yet one of the commandments says to not steal.  I understand completely now guys. Thanks. What was that motivational poster i saw about Christianity? QUOTE The belief that a cosmic Jewish zombie who was his own father can make you live forever after you die if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree... Makes perfect sense. So; now that your Darwin fish has been stolen; Will you be buying another one? Or will you be buying a Car Alarm first?
