Glenn Beck calls evolution 'ridiculous,' says he's never seen a half-human, half-monkey

Glenn Beck says he's never seen a half-man, half-monkey.

Glenn Beck thinks the theory of evolution is a bunch of monkey business.

The wildly popular Fox News host Wednesday called the idea that humans evolved from primates "ridiculous."

While the deeply religious Beck denouncing evolution isn't a shock, his defense was a head-scratcher: "I haven't seen a half-monkey, half-person yet. Did evolution just stop?"

Scientists have shown humans and chimpanzees share roughly 96% of the same DNA. Chimps are classified as apes, not monkeys.

Beck, however, is only interested in what God has to say on the matter.

"I don't know how God creates. I don't know how we got here," Beck said. "If I get to the other side and God's like, 'You know what, you were a monkey once,' I'll be shocked, but I'll be like, 'Whatever.'"

The most recent polls on the debate show Beck is certainly not alone in his dismissal of evolution. More than 40% told a 2006 Pew survey that humans have only existed in our present form and of the 51% who did accept evolution, 21% said it was guided by a "supreme being."

CBS News' 2005 poll found more than 50% rejected evolution.

Beck equated the argument to global warming, which he says scientists, along with evolution, "force it down your throat."

"When anybody has to force it, that's a problem. You didn't have to force that the world is round. Truth is truth. You don't have to force the truth."

Ok, now I'm sure, nobody takes fox seriously people have just been fucking with my head.

Triple OG Rapsodie:
lol, this reminds me of a Futurama episode. Where they keep coming up with a new species to link apes closer to man. And then everyone wants to know the link between the new species and humans. And on and on and on....

QuietTruth:
Well now we on Rapsodie's expertise.


Evolution still don't proof shit. Evolution proves Evolution. Adaptation. Not creation. WE WASN'T MONKEYS. WE have basically the same exact genes as rats. Were we rats? No, Lil' Cease maybe but not WE.

Didn't you hear? They where just tryin' to explain Black People, so they said they evolved from Apes. ::) And ya'll still believe that theory. :-X

7 million years ago our ancestors were pretty much monkeys. The first human-like foot prints were left 3. fuckin 6 MILLION years ago. Ain't hard to imagine that from then to now the ape just got a little too intelligent. 8)
