He's singing about theistic evolution, so he must be one of those appeasers…but since he's funny, I'll forgive him.

Random Quote
The Christian claims the Humanist worships man, yet it is the Christian that worships Jesus Christ - a man as well. If the Humanist worships humanity, at least he does it while it is still alive. Christ died many centuries ago.
Leonardo Foradelli 1851 (Italian Humanist)

Cute. I am sending this to all of my born-again friends with a sense of humor. Both of them!

Chris Smither is one of America's best songwriters, with a distinguished career going back to the mid-60s Boston-Cambridge scene. Check him out...

Ha! Humor and talent trumps logic!
Actually, I got the impression that he was poking fun at theistic evolution rather than appeasing. But, I only listened to it once, maybe I missed the subtlety...

Man, I saw this guy in concert a couple of years back. It was a great show.
I felt like throwing my guitar in the dumpster afterwards. He is an absolutely phenomenal fingerpicker.

Hmm. An anthropology student that got kicked out for missing classes due to too much time spent playing guitar. That might explain it. Ref: his Wiki article.
Wish I could find the lyrics to that one somewhere. I missed several bits. I'd pay to hear him play, to be sure.

Mmm mm. Nuthin I like better'n historical comedy. Unless it's good talkin blues. Unless it's both.
Does anybody know of Jamie Brokett, who I used to see at free shows he occasionally gave at UNH?
Posted by: Rob Lopresti | January 16, 2007 12:25 AM
You can find the lyrics (and chords) in the latest issue of Sing Out! magazine (v50 n 4)http://www.singout.org/ Subscribers also got a CD with that song and the 20 or so other songs that appear in that issue.
By the way, if you like this song you might want to try Roy Zimmerman at http://www.royzimmerman.com/index.php His latest album, Faulty Intelligence, features "Creation Science 101," and "Intelligent Design."

His whole new album (from which Origin of the Species comes) Leave the Lights On is a gem. As is everything else he does.

Man, if you remember Jamie Brocket, you must be as old as me!? I still have an LP of his and he was great. I remember The USS Titanic became his standby that was so intense he was exhausted by the time he'd finish it.

Jamie Brocket's 'Legend of the USS Titanic' is alive and
well in the digital age. A CD of that antique LP- called
'The Wind and Rain' was recently released. A comic cultural
gem that is part of my mental DNA...(as it were). A high
octane-manic-revisionary put-on, in good company with
Smithers wry re-reading of Genesis. And "the captain's out
cold on the wheel-house floor", still.
