Apples and oranges

…This really is an issue of fruit.

In one hand, you’ve got an orange (evolution). In the other, you’ve got an apple (Intelligent Design).

If you engage in a broad discussion about fruit (why we exist), it’s proper to weigh the two. If you’re talking about citrus fruits (science), you steer clear of apples.

Why? The apple isn’t a citrus fruit. It’s a fine fruit – it’s kept many a doctor away, and knowledge of how to pie it made mom all-American – it’s just not a member of the citrus family.

The president, however, looked at both and said, “I think this apple just might be citrus fruit.”

…The laugh-out-loud line, though, comes at the end of the article. (With an “ouch!” attached.)
