No Kishi,
We don’t hate religion; we don’t hate retards; we don’t even hate Peter. We just want to help each of them. Make the world a better place. Because not everybody believes in 72 virgin assholes…
move on?? after thousands of years of religion being shoved down ours throats- we FINALLY have a glimmer of hope that REALITY might kick in. it needs all the help and hints and obvious blatant attacks on the stupidity of RELIGION.
if you believe in the invisible guy in the sky- you belong exactly where you were placed on that list- BELOW THE IDIOTS.
So, given the “faint glimmer of hope,” people who oppose religion are going to take up the same tactic they despise in religion and shove their standpoint down everyone’s throat at the slightest opportunity? And not actual arguments, but just insults about how religious people are stupid and wrong?
One show that makes fun of creationists and other stupid religious stuff does not constitute shoving a “standpoint down everyone’s throat at the slightest opportunity”. It is impossible to argue w/ someone when they don’t believe in debate. Creationists have eschewed logic, so they/you are stuck w/ “just insults about how religious people are stupid and wrong”.
That’s just great. “GO SETH GO”. No matter what your IQ may be, despite that number being derived from a scientific process, if you believe in God, you’re dumber than “a retard”.
Pardon me for pointing this out to you Mensa members with my meager Laymen vocabulary, but I learned in kindergarten that saying, “yea? well….you’re dumb!” is a very shitty comeback to any well-established opinion.
the shittiness of that comeback is actually due to the hesitation and lack of imagination in the insult.
Retaliating by calling your opponent’s intelligence into question, or calling attention to the lack thereof is a very effective technique indeed, even without using an expansive vocabulary.
For example:
Man 1: “I learned in kindergarten that saying, “yea? well….you’re dumb!†is a very shitty comeback to any well-established opinion.”
Man 2: “Wow, I really don’t know if it’s worth my time thinking up a witty insult for someone who is stupid enough to call Creationism a “well-established opinion”
What’s harder to believe: The big bang and then billions of years of random interactions, or that there was nothing and then a super powerful wizard willed himself into existence and created everything using infinite wishes? The former is at least plausible, and it doesn’t require you to be brainwashed from birth to believe it.
Elzar:
Man 3: Go die on a bus you smug douche. Whether you believe in it or not, Creationism is an *opinion* that’s not only deeply-rooted, it’s a concept that’s been around hella lot longer than Darwin.
Man 1: Thus, it’s a “well-established opinion.” Who’s stupid now?
Man 2: Yea? Well….your face is stupid!
Alec:
The latter sounds implausible, because of the way you phrase. I’m not stricken with hubris, I don’t claim to know how the universe works. But you just pointed out basic and simple reasons that I can’t back evolution:
1. The materials needed for the bang was there beforehand, but i’m not allowed to suggest the same of my Creator?
2. You call it random interactions, like it’s the chances of getting mugged in a bad neighborhood alone at night. Really, what are the odds that randomly bumping atoms can produce an environment that can CREATE AND SUSTAIN multiple, complex species?
3. Trial and Error is a very useful scientific process. If applied to your “random interactions” what are the chances that one atom wouldn’t bump into another one that would completely screw over the perfect combination needed for life, or worse yet, just invalidate the randomly generated chain thus far?
I don’t know what your experience was for you to call it brainwashing, but i’m an adult who’s taken time to examine and question, and actually read my bible rather than listen to a Pastor or copypasta google’d criticisms. I don’t need goddamn Family Guy insulting my intelligence.
The key point is that either “god” just magically popped into existence, or “god” developed gradually over time. If you believe the former could happen, then why not the big bang? It’s not as huge a leap of faith and far less complex. And if you believe the latter, then you’re essentially an evolutionist already. Welcome aboard!
If the big bang happened, there would be measurable evidence left behind, and there is. Yet there’s no measurable evidence of the “god” hypothesis. Just a bunch of contradictory 1800 year old stories written in the stupid ages. It’s errors and inconsistencies betray it’s human authorship.
Forgot to add: I’ve read the bible over two dozen times, old and new, since I was old enough to read. But with every reading, I would find more and more problems with it. When I asked my parents or church “elders” to clarify things, they would just give the stupidest parroted answers. Like when I asked my parents why god screwed over the millions of people born before judism or christianity, they just said “all the earth is grass”. So it’s understandable that I saw through the bullshit. I actually asked questions and used my brain.
2. You call it random interactions, like it’s the chances of getting mugged in a bad neighborhood alone at night. Really, what are the odds that randomly bumping atoms can produce an environment that can CREATE AND SUSTAIN multiple, complex species?
Apparently 100%.
3. Trial and Error is a very useful scientific process. If applied to your “random interactions†what are the chances that one atom wouldn’t bump into another one that would completely screw over the perfect combination needed for life, or worse yet, just invalidate the randomly generated chain thus far?
Clearly 0%.
I don’t need goddamn Family Guy insulting my intelligence.
Are you retarded? Family Guy insults the intelligence of everyone. It’s comedy; L2 take a joke.
That is the simplest most effective way of countering any relgious argument.
I love the “let me tell you a ten minute story to prove it” thing – its an art form akin to salesmenship
I had a superb Jahova’s Witness come to my door when I was about 15, I basically said, for my own entertainment, I just don’t believe it because I haven’t seen proof or examples of god. He then said
“How do you explain that a man with a struggling company who was overloaded with work went home stressed and in need, he prayed to the lord for help and guidance in church on Sunday, he came into work on Monday and was told by his staff how great the new computers were – “what computers” and the whole office was filled with brand new computers”
I couldn’t believe it – I was just amazed by him being able to say in his head “I know what will help my point” … I was totally gobsmacked and lost for words, my dad *took over* basically and I just went into my room with brain pain.
That’s actually the top of the chart there… the bottom half is folded up behind it… and what’s on there? Hmm?
Is it you?
Is it?
Cheap one Zechariah.
Naw, it’s YO’ MOMMA, ya obvious-joke-bait-taking fucktard!
The percentages…
That was too scary for prime time TV.
yea, this picture pretty much sums everything up.
ROFLMFAO!!!!!!!!!
Dear Seth MacFarlane-
We *get* it! You hate religion! Can we move on? Thanks.

Wow. Do atheists believe in irony?
Not all religious people. Just creationist retards.
Oh, yeah, the comment above is pretty specific about that. Or, not, whatever.

Suggestion: Grow up a bit?

I’m gonna go w/ the second one. Do I win something? An ass raping maybe? *crosses fingers and toes*
Yea, both of those are perverse jokes of what either side actually believes.

You don’t understand it, so god did it.
Thats why you are a retard.
Be as religious as you want, but when the evidence points away from god, be man enough to accept it.
The evidence doesn’t point away from God, it points away from the bible, which people equate with God.
Haha
