Observations and inanities by a second-shift assistant supervisor in the Puppy-Grinding division of the Evil Atheist Conspiracy® (our motto: "Sure it's cruel, but think of the jobs!"), your host, Brent Rasmussen.
Hmm. Maybe the Mormons had the right idea, after all.
Ol' Joe Smith may have had the right idea about polygamy, after all. Well, at least the evolutionary historical idea, anyway.
Men age faster 'because of Stone Age sex'
The reason that women outlive men by an average of around five years is due to sex, harems and violence in the Stone Age, according to a study published today.
Scientists have struggled to understand why men only tend to live to an average age of 75 while women live to an average of 80.
Now it seems that the reason is that our prehistoric male ancestors kept female harems and fought over them to procreate: because male life was nasty, brutish and short, evolutionary forces focused on making males big and strong, rather than long lived.
See? He really was just trying to get back to the way our ancestors lived. Man, talk about your "old time religion"...
