I'm not a religious man, but I don't like it when people get made fun of or called dumb for their beliefs. If something similar was done with a muslim man there would be a huge shitstorm of people saying it was insensitive.
I get what you mean, and I feel the same. We honestly don't know how we came to be about. We have evidence for evolution but no solid proof. Though that is more than any other belief, it is still a belief itself.
But no one should be made fun of something they truly believe in, be it fairies or a flying spaghetti monster.
Oh ffs, he's not making fun of this guy he's making a point. This guy isn't just a man off the street who sells vacummes, he's in an important position making decisions that impact on thousands of peopeks lives and he is a moron who believes in talking snakes. It's all well and good to say " oh but his beliefs" but when those beliefs impact negatively on thousands of people well I'm gonna call bullshit.
How the fuck is believing in god going to negatively affect thousands of people????? You guys don't understand anything about the religion don't you? you judge us on the extremists. Most of us are peaceful and loving, but some people are just dicks. There can be dicks in all religions, including evolution. Pushing your ideas on some one else is a slightly Dickinson thing to do, not everyone believes what you do. But if you start shitting on everyone who believes in something different, your the one who's kind of being close minded and rude. Let believe in our fucking talking snakes. All it really affects us is that we believe we were saved and we want to do our best on earth to follow gods commandments, which are NOT burn gays, gays must die, people who get abortions will go to hell.
Yea, the Darwin Award actually. To posit evolution and religion as to have a comparable probability shows this guest knows dick about science in general and evolution especially. Evolution is as close to 100% "true", as religion is to 100% false. Both positions could not be further away from each other. Let people believe whatever the hell they want, fine with me any day. But - as this guest - deez nutz are not satisfied with that, they want their fairytales to be treated the same as actual science. That is stupid, ignorant and completely delusional. Last time I checked religion was not a request to the like minded peer group to prove a believer wrong in his belief, which is what science is all about.
Your words are farts to my ears. If there is a god it's shaking it's multiple heads at you. Your a disgrace to most religions you two. Your pride and ignorance will keep you full of hate. Good luck in your growth as enlightened humans , your gonna need it.
What Durell does there reminds me of those Buddhists trying to "prove" that Buddha Gautama has sort of anticipated the quantum field theory, by interpreting old scriptures. I guess he is just smoking too much shitty schwag weed. Why do I believe that? I am grateful for this question. Let me just pick some random bullshit out of "50 Shades of Grey" to prove my point.
Actually guys like this know full well the idiocy of their claims, but they just stand by them to secure voters. The guys voting for this senator are mostly fundementalist Christians, thus, he needs to appease them.
Which is the single unique and great thing about science. Its not a dogma, its a constant discussion of what might be true. A true scientist is actually happy with another scientist proving him wrong, as this is how both can get closer to the truth of matters.
You will hardly find a scientist bitching on other scientists about how they are dicks because they just cannot accept his personal beliefs and think they are so much smarter than he is.
Oh so you mean there are scientists who don't respect science? Unbefuckinlievable... so science is wrong and god does exist. Thanks for making this clear.
You know nothing about the scientific community obviously. There is alot of opposing opinions in science, and there are thus scientists who oppose the ideas of other scientists. Plus, science never claims to be right: one day a discovery can disprove scientific beliefs once thought to be fact. The beauty of science is that it changes over time, as human understanding of the world increases. If course, you wouldn't understand that, because you have a single digit IQ and are unworthy of even being called a human.
But no one should be made fun of something they truly believe in, be it fairies or a flying spaghetti monster.
Fucking amazing movie.
