So let’s see how evolution works:
fish-fish-fishbird-fishbird-bird-bird
So am I wrong here that we should see evidence of fossils showing:
fish-fish-fish changing to bird-fish changing to bird-bird-bird
What did the fish do lay a egg and out popped a full bird. Or wait, maybe the fish jumped on land and somehow grew lungs, then thought to itself, wow if only I could fly (I think therefore I am) presto wings started growing...
You Evo's say we have been around for billions of years and life has been evolving this whole time. There should be mountains of evidence in the fossil record.
And you guys say we have blind faith...
Who do we have to contact to get this guy the PhD he so clearly deserves? He's convinced me. Evolution is stupid. Why have I wasted my life taking all of these science classes?
See you suckers later, I'm off to the Creation Museum.

Well, he's not completely off with respect to fish developing limbs. Didn't happen overnight. At least he's not asking for a crockduck.
ReplyDeleteWell, shit, if he would have explained it that way a long time ago I would have seen the error in my EVILutionist way a lot sooner.
ReplyDeleteGotta go visit Hovind,brb.

Right. I'm sure Hovind could use some of our money to help his legal fight against is wrongful imprisonment. It's an IRS/Atheist/Evolutionist conspiracy to silence him from speaking the truth. Now, where did I put my checkbook?
That description of evolution is almost as intelligent as Ms. Garrison's on South Park.
ReplyDeleteThis is what happens when schools don't teach evolution. A billion mistakes here, but one I'd like to point out:

I hear lots of creationists talk about how animals "know" to evolve or "decide" to evolve. If you tie that thought to the "creation must have a creator" argument, it shows how they cannot conceive of natural processes occuring. The only model they have for actions occuring is of an intelligent agent deliberately executing a plan.
Yes, he sounds like Miss Garrison on the atheist/evolution/Richard Dawkins episode of South Park. "Retarded fish-frogs have butt sex with squirrels."
ReplyDeleteTrip,
ReplyDeleteThat is one of my favorite videos, ever.
My apologies, Trip, I missed your post and link.

ReplyDeleteInterestingly and ironically enough, there's an evolutionary advantage to the human tendency to assign intelligent or at least intentional causality to phenomena. Those ancestors of ours who responded to the sound of rocks moving and twigs snapping by saying, "Yo. What the fuck is doing that?" stood better odds of noticing and evading Mister Large and Hungry.
In other words, evolution has favored, in some strange way, the survival of these lackwits who assume that there's got to be somebody running the show.
Charles, thanks for that perspective. I really had never thought about it that way before.
ReplyDeleteCharles,
ReplyDeleteDan Barker tried to explain that to Rayniac Todd Friel in their debate, but of course Friel was incapable of grasping or even considering the issue.
After reading this comment, I offered to send the guy a couple books to help him understand. As I predicted, he has not responded.
ReplyDeleteIt plays itself out over and over again: the fastest way to win an argument with a creationist is to offer to buy them books.
