Darwin Day is celebrated on Charles Darwin's birthday, which is also shared with Abraham Lincoln. Darwin Day is not as much a celebration of his birthday as it is of his theory. It is a celebration of Science and Reason. His Theory of Evolution has been and is the most maligned theory by the non-scientific community; while at the same time, one of the most hailed and lauded by those in the scientific community. There is no way you could study and apply many of the sciences and advanced technologies of today without use of some parts of his theory. It can only be rejected through ignorance.
Representative Pete Stark’s (D-CA) has proposed a House Resolution calling for the designation of February 12, 2011 as Darwin Day. I am almost certain that it won't pass, so in its stead I present the following video in celebration of Evolution Theory and Darwin Day.
