How about "when was the last time an abortion clinic was burned by a
"christian' zealot?", or "the last time a "christian zealot" murdered a
clinic worker?"
Not that I'm equating evolution and abortion, but the religious zeal of
some zealots makes it hard to predict their behavior. Alos, how about
burning artwork that depicts the evolution ofman? See the articles poosted
by Jason Spaceman. There is one where a one-time student painted a piece
that showed the evolution of man, and the janitor burned it because he found
it offensive.
