1. In what way is the man’s story of evolution mythical?
2. A typical reader response to this text might go as follows: “Oh, so Quinn is saying
that evolution is a myth. Therefore, he is saying that evolution didn’t really happen.”
Evaluate this statement. Do you agree or disagree with it? How do you know that
you are right?
3. The story suggests that both creationists and evolutionists might be similar in what
way?
4. What assumptions/value judgments reflect from statements such as “our
environment” or “our wildlife”? Why do we believe that we are not part of nature,
but controlling it from above?
