One of the key figures of the Arab conquests is Khalid ibn al-Walid, the chief general of Abu Bakr. After fulfilling orders by restoring the status quo at the death of the Prophet, he decided for himself the problem of what to do next by embarking on a programme of military expansion. The real beginning of the Arab conquests is the Battle of 'Aqraba' in 633 in eastern Najd. The victory proved to the Arabs the capacity of the Medinese Government and the advisability of submitting to it. Thereafter a series of expeditions radiated in all directions

Through the miracle of animation, Charles Darwin tells the creationists to "kiss my ass".
It doesn't seem very true-to-life, but he has had over a century to work up a bit of crankiness.

He also seems to have picked up a bit of an accent..

Yes, I would have thought that Darwin would have a British accent.

No. He would speak exactly like Jon Benjamin.

Since H. Jon Benjamin recently provided the voice for Satan in "Lucy, Daughter of the Devil," I'm sure that the creationists would consider this type casting.

Was that from the TV show "home movies?"
Posted by: dbpitt | March 11, 2006 5:12 PM
Nope, same guy who was the voice of Coach McGuirk on Home Movies, but the clip was from "The Dick and Paula Celebrity Special" show on FX channel. Same production company (Soup2Nuts).

How could they do this to him? It's called an "ARSE"!.

I would have liked to have heard a more Bill Murray accent.

Bartholomew: Yes, why would Darwin ask anyone to kiss his donkey? Oh, he means "arse". Ahhh...Well, creationism is, as Gould put it, an "American problem", but many exist outside the US....
