This article illustrates narrative evolution by considering narrative data from a university classroom exercise that inflamed religious and right-wing sensibilities. Following Miller's conceptualization, narratives are presumed to compete for dominance in an environment of human communication. The viability of an evolutionary approach to narrative analysis was assessed. Alterity, heresy, gatekeeping, and association were anticipated. The practice of intimidation was both surprising and prominent in the case illustration. In the end, this research suggests the possible utility of conceiving of public discourse as narrative competition
