This made we want to vomit a little bit.
Ok, ok i lied.
This made me want to vomit A LOT. All over the place, like that scene it Team America.
Lovely.
I don't have much time for fundamentalists from any religion, least of all christianity, and this hasn't improve my world view of them. The fact that they are deliberately targeting young, impressionable children is no surprise, religion is built on mass deception imprinted at a young age. It is the fact that they are so woefully ignorant of the scientific evidence, so fantastically summed up by:
"Did you look at this building and say 'wow, this got here by an explosion in a brick factory' "
No, of course you didn't. Clearly someone built that building, it was designed. There are plans. People can probably remember it being built. You know, evidence.
This is not analogous to evolution (like you needed telling!). Anyone for a game of name the logical fallacy?!
You believe what the bible says. Of course you do, you are narrow minded, and haven't moved on in 2000 years, despite the strenuous effort of science to drag you stupid people out of the dark ages. And yes it worked, once. But the pollution of children's minds is a problem.
If you put forward the evidence for creationism, and the evidence for evolution (and in fact all science) and let people decide for themselves in an unbiased way, without prior interference from other sources then only the literally INSANE would plump for the fairy tale over the truth.
We base our decisions on the facts around us. If we stub our toe, it hurts, and we don't do it again (or try not to, i do..usually in the middle of the night whilst i struggle to find the toilet). A tiny little experiment (of a small sample size I admit), but an experiment non the less. We tend not to believe random things told to us by people who aren't altogether trustworthy. I am pretty sure you wouldnt believe everything a used car salesman tells you about the AMAZING car you are looking at. You take it with a pinch of salt.
So why sell yourself out to this hocus-pocus?
The continued absolute stupidity of Ham (who from now on will be referred to as Bacon, because he is the meats intellectual equal) amazes me. He makes the same mistakes that creationists have made for centuries.
"did your grandfather look like this?" (pointing to a photoshop of a chimp and a person).
NO. OF course he f**king didn't. Unless he was a little...unlucky (but that is beside the point).
NO ONE SAID YOUR GRANDFATHER WAS A CHIMP. Get over it you stupid little people. Use your god given (chuckle chuckle) brains! this is a long, long term process, and the ancestors of humans and chimps were not chimps, but some earlier monkey-like creature (some estimates at ~4 million years).
"you are very very different to chimps and apes"
No you are not, don't feel special. You aren't. You are here by chance. Don't be so self centred.
I havent even managed to finish watching the video, so I am sure a follow up post will occur.
God help me.
