Stonehenge

As my father noted on his blog, Stonehenge is an "homage to paganism." It reminds us that men will go to great lengths to worship nature and rebel against God. The existence of Stonehenge, the most notable of the ancient stone circles of Great Britain (and there are hundreds), reminds modern man that his ancestors were very capable individuals. Both the precise astronomical calender reading system of the massive stone circle, as well as the existence of such a significant feat of construction before the advent of modern technology, shows the folly of the evolutionary view which always paints ancient man as simple in comparison to modern man. Many consider modern man the greatest, smartest, most evolved people of all time. But our generation is not uniquely brilliant. We are simply the heirs to the accumulated wisdom and knowledge of the past.

As one might expect, there were a number of Druid wannabes out there telling everyone to "return Stonehenge to its natural environs", though I don't think many people understood what they meant by that.
