Eight ID ‘toons that I found funny, not in any order

(Note: Yes, I am back blogging. To start with, I am simply going to post stuff of interest in a variety of genres, to catch up with my dismaying backlog. Go away for a month and everything happens. (Sigh.) Re cartoons on the intelligent design controversy: Too much of the stuff I see is off target, blandly predictable, or weakly political. My guess is, that will change as more cartoonists become aware of the depth of the controversy. Here is some stuff I thought was fun, not in any order.)

I don’t have to agree with you. I just want you to be funny.

Now here’s a wonderful old Punch cartoon of Charles Darwin, presumably in the process of evolving." Beat that if you can, cartoonists. That’s the target!
