A blond man in a suit and red tie jabs his thumb at his own chest, looking proud and indignant, declaring: "I didn't 'evolve' from no monkey! I DESCEND from two people cursed for disobeying God, and the incestuous unions of their children!" A caption below reads: "I never understood the 'argument from dignity.'" The joke turns creationist pride against itself, since the literal biblical account he prefers is no more flattering than evolution. Votey: a crudely drawn face adds, "The ones not killed by their siblings."
