"Natural Selection" must not work, some people think that was a serious question!

You should never be offended by the truth (LOL)

How rude to infer that you might be in a state of arrested development !
On the other hand, his comment might be interpreted otherwise: if the darwinian laws of natural selection don't seem to have any effects on you, might it not be that you have become a Ãbermensch - a "superman", as defined by the philosopher Nietzsche ?
Your minister, in contrast to you, is just human. Too human.
I would be interested to know what the hell you did or say to get him to try to insult you =:)

For this to be an insult to you he must believe in natural selection works, therefore he is contravening his own religious bigotry and will go to hell...
Hoorah for counter intuitive logic

I would be. Natural selection basically means survival of the fittest, so he/she was saying you have a deficiency of some sort.

Your minister doesn't know jack doo doo about natural selection, does he? As you are clearly superior, he is wrong. Are you happy now?

Your minister is human and made a statement that was ignorant. Forgive him for it, but tell him that he needs to read on further into judgement. It is not for him to say what God has in store for you.

There's a lot of that going around. My mother says my dad is proof that men can't evolve.

Your minister is poor excuse for a servant of God and Man
