I just noticed I screwed up a sentance in a paragraph. Going to reword it now.

Should I send it to a paper? I don't think the Listener accepts letters that have been published elsewhere.

Well, try the Listener anyway, and then the papers. It's definitely publication-worthy.

What she said- I don't think this counts as publication personally. ;)

Was that letter supposed to be...ironic? Because certain parts of it sound sarcastic. Am I being stupid? Most probably.

It is meant to be taken less then seriously. Comparing two myths of earth mothers and sky fathers and people made out of clay and claiming one is clearly true (and supportable by ID) and the other false (we've grown since then). Then a warning about disreputable types that bring in crazy beliefs (trees), which really doesn't notice the craziness of the self belief.

Because ID is usually espused by fanatical christians. What would happen if we applied other religous mythology to the same thoery?

Sorry, I read it again and now I feel like a dick 'cos I get it. I don't know what was wrong with me before, I've been sick so my brain is permanently stuck on "Brain Fart".
Yeah, it's awesome. You should totally send it in, it'll make people ROFL.
