Well, no. This is a recreation of posts found on christian forums.
@SkeletonIncubuS : I'd feel like goldilocks. except I'll take what I can and sleep somewhere the bears can't get me.
This attitude is what causes global warming =)
Um No! I am an atheist and I don't believe half the crap he is talking about. First of all I don't care what your religion is if you are catholic,jew or fucking Muslim hey man that is your style. I just don't believe in this divine spirit that judges our lives! Second religion was created as a way to control peoples lives "if your good you go to this magical place where all your dreams come true and it is filled with all nice people and pixies and fucking fairy dust. Hitler could of gone to heaven people all he had to do was pray for forgiveness for killing all those people in the Holocaust and then instead of killing himself have his girlfriend kill him! GET REAL PEOPLE!!!
IM GOING TO GO FUCK A HOOKER, MOM!
People don't pick up jokes at all. The attitude these guys are giving is obviously one of Juvenalian Satire.
Stop debating against a video that is subtly agreeing with your views.
this is best
but it's kinda scary that people actually said some this stuff
lmao
What a juvenile attempt at Anti-Christian satire.
I'd REALLY like to know where they got their Christian forums. I'd like to educate them being a Christian myself.
*Sigh*
SkeletonIncubuS, the reason for the huge and unfulfilled gaps is the way we get information about past organisms--the fossil record. As you are probably aware, a lot of organisms don't leave fossils, and even of those that do, there are still that did not completely survive the ravages of time, and still some that are still being found.
For those who argue that there must have been an "intelligent designer" behind the creatures extant today, then how do you explain vestigial structures, or simply features that aren't of any benefit? Why do the eyes of humans and most vertebrates have backward-facing photo receptors that result in blind spots, whereas invertebrate eyes (like those of cuttlefish, squids, and other cephalopods) don't have that problem. Why is the uterus in a woman approximately on top of the bladder, which is problematic and irksome when she is carrying a developing fetus (thus pregnant woman have to micturate more frequently than normal)? God's punishment of Eve in the Book of Genesis certainly didn't mention that.
Also, evolution, driven by natural selection, is not random, nor is it linear. The fossil record of horses, one of the most complete we have, shows that the size of the ancestor of the modern horse (and its relatives) fluctuated over time, until it became the noble beast of burden we have today.
Intelligent design makes no sense, and is not science at all. I don't believe that Darwinian evolution has the complete picture, but it seems much closer to the truth than intelligent design or any of the latest forms of creationism. Remember that amongst creationists are people who believe that all fossils are fake or elaborate attemtps at deception, that the dinosaurs lived side by side with humans and were originally all herbivores, and that the Earth is only 6,000 years old.

i read a book debating about stuff like this , on what is real , creation or evolution .
and it stated there that creation really makes more sense .
evolution doesn't make much sense in the fact that it had huge gaps that were unfulfilled .the gulfs on reptiles becoming amphibian , on amphibians becoming reptiles , from ape to man , etc . the book said that a few million scientists grouped up and gather all the fossils recorded in the world and organized them according to the theory of evolution yet they still had very huge and unfulfilled gaps . and it had no beginning , no strong foundation .
and it also said:
Since every house has a designer and a builder , what of our far more intricate and better equipped earth ?
imagine that you are in a barren desert , devoid of all life . suddenly you come upon a house . the house has air conditioning , heat , plumbing , and electricity . it's cupboards are filled with food . it's basement contains fuel and other supplies , now suppose you asked someone where all this came from , in such a barren desert . What would you think if that person answered , " It just happened to appear there by chance .would you believe that ? or would you take it for granted that it had a designer and a builder ?

creationism and evolution dont make sense, but we do have hints and proof of what has happened. Its just easier to grasp with some proof rather than a concept that has no proof except word of mouth.
