[[File:Saw.JPG|right|thumbnail|226px|One of the great mysteries of the history of evolutionists is what kind of saw evolutionist Erasmus Darwin used to cut a semi-circle in his dining table so that his enormous girth could be accommodated at meal times.<ref>[http://creation.com/darwinism-it-was-all-in-the-family Darwinism: it was all in the family]</ref> Why is it it that so many prominent evolutionists have been so bad at [[applied biology]]?<ref>[http://conservapedia.com/Essay:_Professor_PZ_Myers_fails_his_applied_biology_course Professor PZ Myers fails his applied biology course]</ref><ref>[http://conservapedia.com/New_Atheism_leadership%27s_problem_with_excess_weight New Atheism leadership's problem with excess weight]</ref><ref>[http://conservapedia.com/Atheism_and_obesity Atheism and obesity]</ref>

The [[evolution]]ist [[Erasmus Darwin]], who was [[Charles Darwin]]'s grandfather, is believed to have influenced Charles Darwin as far as the development of Charles Darwin's evolutionary beliefs.<ref>[http://creation.com/darwinism-it-was-all-in-the-family Darwinism: it was all in the family]</ref> 

Erasmus Darwin, like [[PZ Myers]] and a significant portion of the leadership of the [[New Atheism|New Atheist]] movement, was not particularly good at [[applied biology]] when it came to his own body (see also: [[Essay: Professor PZ Myers fails his applied biology course|Professor PZ Myers fails his applied biology course]] and  [[New Atheism leadership's problem with excess weight]]).<ref>[http://creation.com/darwinism-it-was-all-in-the-family Darwinism: it was all in the family]</ref> 

An article entitled [http://creation.com/darwinism-it-was-all-in-the-family Darwinism: it was all in the family] declares concerning Erasmus Darwin:
{{cquote|His love of food (particularly fruits, sugar, cream and butter) was matched by his dislike of exercise, and by the age of 46 he had grown so corpulent that a semi-circle had to be cut out of his dining table to accommodate his girth at meal times.<ref>[http://creation.com/darwinism-it-was-all-in-the-family Darwinism: it was all in the family]</ref>}}
