Kenya's Great Rift Valley is considered to be the cradle of humankind because of the numerous fossil that have emerged from the region. In what is possibly a first, quite a number of the finds have not actually left the country, but remain in Kenya, under the management of the country's national museum. The museum however is coming under attack by the nation's Christian Pentecostal congregation for presenting the fossils in support of the theory of evolution. The fossils represent the most visible and possibly the strongest links, that humankind and primates share a common ancestor. The fundamentalist wackos of course find this to be a contradiction to their beliefs.

When will the stupidity end?
