Earlier this week in my Science class, we had a discussion on DNA, twins, genes and cloning. Somehow, this led to a tangent on artificial insemination. One bright star in my class raised his hand and said,
"But do they have a bellybutton?"
Today our discussion was on evolution. Our professor was explaining how dogs, whales, humans, and birds all have a similar bone structure in the leg, flipper, arm, or wing, respectively. Never one to disappoint, the same bright boy raised his hand and, barely composing himself from the laughter, said,
"Too bad we didn't keep the feathers because then we could fly!"
It truly saddens me how horribly the public school system has failed some people so badly.
