      It’s an apt editorialisation, but it’s not the whole story. The difference is the full quote will sound reasonable enough to a lot of people with a religious background. For instance, I can see my grandparents nodding a long to this, as they mentally insert their own specifics in place of “evolution did it.”

      It’s not so easily dismissed as just saying the crazy thing outright, without padding.
