  Darwin Fish: The FAQ
Darwin claims he has never been shown where he was in error, and that the elders of Grace Church failed in their responsibility to reprove him "with great patience and instruction" (2 Tim.
Darwin Fish insists this too is a false accusation, citing as proof a list of his own tapes that he has withdrawn from circulation.
Darwin recently reappeared, however, with a well-used van some are calling "Fishmobile II: The Beast." Unfortunately Darwin has taken full advantage of the larger panels and is now bringing a reproach on the cause of Christ on our freeways with bigger, bolder lettering than ever.

 (9/27/99) And What Does the Darwin - Fish Logo Mean to You?
A new survey of the attitudes of those who stick Darwin fish symbols on their cars shows that while some are merely making fun of religion in general, many want to appropriate a sacred symbol -- and wreck it.
But for those who accept evolution by natural selection, the fish symbol was a golden opportunity for parody, and soon Darwin fish, with their flat feet heading presumably toward land and further natural selection, showed up on car bumpers, too.
By putting Darwin's name where Christ's would traditionally go, the Darwin fish does not assert, as one might think, that science is salvation and that Darwin is its prophet.

 Spawn of Snakehead? (washingtonpost.com)
The news that a fisherman had netted the tiny creatures has further alarmed state officials, who were already mulling what to do about the weird, toothy, Asian walking fish, capable of consuming a pondful of fish and then limping along on its strong pectoral fins and belly to other waters.
If the babies were caught in the pond, as the fisherman reports, and prove to be snakeheads, that means that there were at least two adult snakeheads and that they, or others, have already spawned, officials said.
A juvenile fish, believed to be a snakehead fingerling, was taken from a pond in Crofton by fishermen and given to the Maryland Department of Natural Resources.
