Their Own Worst Enemy
Religion, General Idiocy, Humor March 22nd. 2007, 7:54pmI’ve seen plenty of posts about the relatively new Conservapedia , and felt little reason to comment on it myself. However, with my discovery of the new GodTube, I am convinced that the Christian fundamentalists behind these sites are quickly becoming their own worst enemy.
I present exhibit A…
Nevermind that the banana he is using in his divine demonstration is a direct result of human engineering and 7000 years of cultivation for smaller seeds and a tastier banana, in much the same way we have cultivated seedless grapes and watermelons. The comments on the video’s page tell much of the story.
Like I said, their own worst enemy.

I’ve written a lot lately about YECs shooting themselves in the foot by exposing their mental illness on the internet.
They will dwindle down to a few, because you can’t go around to a broad audience and say things that are equal to saying the sky is plaid.

The comments on GodTube are even more hilarious than the “proof” itself. For further laughs on creationism:

There are more serious attempts to promote creationism, but the eloquence, rhetorics and jocularity of proponents like Hovind cover up and veil a lack of valid arguments. Interesting to look at his videos though: http://www.godtube.com/search_result.php?search_id=hovind&search_typ=search_videos&x=0&y=0

Before man “retooled” the banana it was inedible. It had huge very hard seeds and very little flesh. Primitive people breed out the seeds until today they are tiny specks within the flesh.
I suppose if one wanted want to stretch credibility it could be said that God showed man how to perform this feat, but then you must ask why didn’t he create bananas as we now find them?
The sad thing about the belief system of these people is that they breed like rabbits and make more non-thinkers (that too must be god’s plan)

Yes, because humans are the only creature that eats bananas. As an atheist, I have much scarier nightmares. None of them include fruit.

wow, if there is in fact a god, he’d be amazed by the stupidity of these people.

Well–I suppose without too much revision, one could use the exact same set of observations and arguments to demonstrate that God wants women to masturbate using bananas. And I say “WHY NOT?”–after all, a loving God wouldn’t give you a toy and then tell you not to play with it, right?

I suppose that since bananas are the only food humans eat, the clear and evident design shows that they must have been created by God!
