He looked in the eyes of the world and said to them:
you must be all crazy, almost all of your eyes are brown,
but some of them are blue, and blue eyed couples
always yield blue eyed children, and what:
Mendel is not, and you think that this blue eyed child
from two brown eyed parents are necesserily an act
of
God?
And so he wrote in his
book:
All is
inherited because
there is absolutely no
reason
to think that anything might come from anywhere else.
Whether Mendel is yet known or not,
and whether we know at all how
things come to existence,
or we do not, is irrelevant.

Two blocks away, around the same
time, that is,
the
other guy was busy in a
monestary,
getting crazy on a totally diffrent subject:
He noticed that peepod seeds which are wrinkled
tend to yield more of the same in their plant later,
as compared with the smooth ones.
So bored was he,
and so facinated with this amazing fact,
that he decided to grow a generation of six thousand
seeds to maturity so that he can count how many of them
will come out wrinkled if he had planned their parents
so that according to his new theories it would come to 3000.
(-: Being the crazy
monk that he was,
and not knowing about
Gauss,
he failed in his experiment because :-)
he managed to count 2997 wrinkled peapod yielding plants.
Mendel burried his findings in the monestary
for some student monks to find years later,
long after Darwin's work was
published.
