I genuinely believe, that someday, Carl Everett will literally kill someone. It really is amazing and scary that this man is actually paid to carry around a bat. The only thing more interesting than seeing Carl Everett play baseball, knowing full well that he could attack at any time, is listening to him talk. There is crazy, and then there is Carl Everett, walk slowly backwards while nodding in agreement with him before running away full speed crazy. Along with his near murder of a few umpires on live TV, his view on the non-existence of dinosaurs is legend here in Boston. In a recent Sun-Times interview, Everett did not disappoint.
”Just because I’ve seen them in movies doesn’t mean that they existed,” he said. ”They can make dinosaur bones just like they make dinosaurs for movies. God made man and gave him dominion over the earth and all its animals. If that’s true, then we can’t say that dinosaurs ruled the earth and that man came from monkeys. The Bible says that in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. On the sixth day, God made man and woman. That’s what I believe.”
”I’ve said it before, and people have laughed at me,” he said. ”Separation of church and state was the worst thing ever. You have one or two families who caused that because they were atheists. In this country, the majority opinions [as it relates to God] really don’t fly. I read somewhere that 96 percent of the people believe in some type of god, 3 percent say they’re not sure and 1 percent are atheists.
