...as an advertising tool at least. Check out their creative TV commercial. (via Crooked Timber) The folks at Guiness did get the lineage a bit wrong though. I don't believe our evolution from mud puppies to homo sapiens went through a big, sea-dwelling, fishy-reptile phase.

Maybe the right wingnuts will lighten up on the 'creationism/ID=science' argument when they realize that their healthy, capitalist economy requires a literate, edified population with a good understanding of the natural world - including evolution.

The Guiness people may, or may not be, showing this commercial in the US...
