I’ve been there. I’ve seen how one person in an organization can cause the entire thing to start whipping around its own center in screaming circles. Anything can be an excuse for us going off the collective deep end, picking up sticks and shrieking like rain-struck chimps, working ourselves up into tunnel-visioned hysteria over nothing.

You can argue against evolution all you want, but if you don’t believe you’re a monkey you either don’t own a mirror or you live in a small room all by yourself. And if you’re not beating your forearms against the walls, tell it to the Marines.
