Christians on Twitter Are Complaining About Today’s Evolution Google Doodle
November 24, 2015 by Hemant Mehta
If you’ve been on Google today, then you’ve seen the doodle marking the 41st anniversary of the discovery of Lucy, a set of fossils that helped us understand our species’ own origins:
As predicted yesterday, some Christians on Twitter are already complaining about how this is some sort of assault on their faith:

About that last one, Google has done an Easter doodle. But that would require a few seconds of, you know, Googling.
For all their complaints, though, I promise you none of those people are about to switch over to Bing.

Google no thanks for the evolution banner. Your promoting a unproven fairytale. The truth is GOD created the heavens and the earth.

Google displaying ape to man evolution. If man came from ape – why are there still apes? Do not be deceived. God made us in His image.

Shame on #google for their logo today. There is no evidence to support evolution of apes to man. Darwin even said it was a stupid theory.

Google's main page is ridiculous. We can showcase something as ridiculous as evolution, but not Christianity. Great🙄 pic.twitter.com/F7uLDgcOxA

@google Funny how the main Google image today is the evolution of humans from monkeys. If that was a cross, world would be up in arms. Shame

I love how Google can have a "doodle" celebrating evolution, but they can't have one celebrating the historical significance of Easter…
