  We must be clear that when it comes to atoms, language can be used only as in poetry. The poet, too, is not nearly so concerned with describing facts as with creating images and establishing mental connections.

  Two different theories exist concerning the origin of children: the theory of sexual reproduction, and the theory of the stork. Many people believe in the theory of sexual reproduction because they have been taught this theory at school. In reality, however, many of the world's leading scientists are in favor of the theory of the stork. If the theory of sexual reproduction is taught in schools, it must only be taught as a theory and not as the truth. Alternative theories, such as the theory of the stork, must also be taught.
  
  Evidence supporting the theory of the stork includes the following:
  
  1. It is a scientifically established fact that the stork does exist. This can be confirmed by every ornithologist.
  
  2. The alleged human fetal development contains several features that the theory of sexual reproduction is unable to explain.
