Look you believe we came from bacteria, all 6 billion of us! Hey why don't you let somebody else have a say in what they believe without you mocking us!

What came first the chicken or the egg?

How do plants exist without bugs in the soil, and bugs in the soil without plants producing oxygen?

There are no atheists in foxholes

Underlying the evolutionary theory is not just the classic "stuff" of science — conclusions arrived at through prolonged observation and experimentation. Evolution is first an atheistic, materialistic world view. In other words, the primary reason for its acceptance has little to do with the evidence for or against it. Evolution is accepted because men are atheists by faith and thus interpret the evidence to cor-respond to their naturalistic philosophy.

For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. II Timothy 4:3,4

II Thess. 2:11 And for this cause God shall
send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:

You can not see the 'wind', but you can see its effect!!!!

Evolution was caused by genetic mistakes at each stage?

Radical Evolution has 500 million years to find fossils of fictional drawings of (hard core)missing links, yet they find none.

We have not seen such moral darkness since the dark ages, coencides with
teaching evolution in schools. (Moral darkness)

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places, EPH 6:12.

"Thus, many scientists embracing naturalism find themselves in the seeming dilemma recently articulated by biochemist Franklin Harold: "We should reject, as a matter of principle, the substitution of intelligent design for the dialogue of chance and necessity [i.e., Darwinian evolution]; but we must concede that there are presently no detailed Darwinian accounts of the evolution of any biochemical system, only a variety of wishful speculations."

Verlch, are you saying that no "beliefs" can be mocked or looked at critically, no matter how ridiculous? In that case, I believe that God is a magic pink unicorn(blessed be his horn)(sorry, I've always wanted to write that)

I agree with the_ignored, all this effort could have gone to so much better use. It's a shame...

For one thing, there's actual evidence for evolution, what evidence is there for the existance of people being "possessed" by invisible and otherwise undetectable beings?

Besides, I know that christians mock every belief system but their own. The same goes for the practitioners of every other religious belief.

I think that the universe and all that is in it was gagged up by the Great Cosmic Barfly during a Blessed Hangover caused by a Ceremonial Three Day Soak-up of the Sacred, Fremented and Distilled Vegetable Matter. All surrender to the Holy Will of Barfly or your scaberous, heretic souls will rot in the fetid bowels of Cuspidor!

And practically speaking verlch, my speculation is just as good as yours, and will be until evidence other than tales told by nomads and edited by priests and popes to their own purposes proves otherwise.

Well gee, I don't recall you ever mocking us -- or do I?

Refresh my memory, O verlch; wasn't there something about monkey's uncles and bicycling fish back there somewhere, among other gibberings? Hmmm. Yes, yes, I think there was......

You're an idiot, filthy. It's quite obvious that we all inhabit the Great Festering Sore on the thigh of the Whore of All-Being. After all, it's no coincidence that the Code of the Immaculately Dressed Pimp for the word 'herpes' is 97! Deny it if you will, but then beware the gripping tightness of the Four-Sizes-Too-Small Skirt!

Um, mayhaps you're right. Could my current chancre be regarded as a sign of devotion and piety, then? Perhaps I should not have been so hasty in eradicating the papillion d'amoure.

So many deities; so many signs and portents. It's confusing, sometimes. Why once...

I went out to take a friggin' walk by the friggin' reservoir,
a-wishin' for a friggin' quid to pay my friggin' score,
my head it was a-achin' and my throat was parched and dry,
and so I sent a little prayer, a-wingin' to the sky...

And there came a friggin' falcon and he walked upon the waves,
and I said, "A friggin' miracle!" and sang a couple staves,
of a friggin' churchy ballad I learned when I was young.
The friggin' bird took to the air, and spattered me with dung.

I fell upon my friggin' knees and bowed my friggin' head,
and said three friggin' Aves for all my friggin' dead,
and then I got upon my feet and said another ten.
The friggin' bird burst into flame - and spattered me again.

The burnin' bird hung in the sky just like a friggin' sun.
It seared my friggin' eyelids shut, and when the job was done,
the friggin' bird flashed cross the sky just like a shootin' star.
I ran to tell the friggin' priest - he bummed my last cigar.

I told him of the miracle, he told me of the Rose,
I showed him bird crap in my hair, the bastard held his nose.
I went to see the bishop but the friggin' bishop said,
"Go home and sleep it off, you sod - and wash your friggin' head!"

Then I came upon a friggin' wake for a friggin' rotten swine,
by the name of Jock O'Leary and I touched his head with mine,
and old Jock sat up in his box and raised his friggin' head.
His wife took out a forty-four, and shot the bastard dead.

Again I touched his head with mine and brought him back to life.
His smiling face rolled on the floor, this time she used a knife.
And then she fell upon her knees, and started in to pray,
"It's forty years, O Lord," she said, "I've waited for this day."

So I walked the friggin' city 'mongst the friggin' halt and lame,
and every time I raised them up, they got knocked down again,
'cause the love of God comes down to man in a friggin' curious way,
but when a man is marked for love, that love is here to stay.

And this I know because I've got a friggin' curious sign;
for every time I wash my head, the water turns to wine!
And I gives it free to workin' blokes to brighten up their lives,
so they don't kick no dogs around, nor beat up on their wives.

'Cause there ain't no use to miracles like walkin' on the sea;
They crucified the Son of God, but they don't muck with me!
'Cause I leave the friggin' blind alone, the dyin' and the dead,
but every day at four o'clock, I wash my friggin' head!
