The banana: an atheist’s nightmare April 28, 2006

This is just too good to miss. The Kick Cameron-produced series "Way of the Master" which features some of the most stupid arguments ever caught on film, has proof of "Intelligent Design": that banana just fits us so well.
Make sure to watch at least from the 3:30-4:30 mark. It's great stuff. Note especially how well the banana fits into our mouths and hands.
Evil Bender may have to change his opinion on ID. Maybe, with all the vacancies created by failing to teach kids real sex ed, we could show them this video instead. You know, to prove that God exists or something.
A very popular video.
I’m glad to see so many people thinking it’s stupid, though.
“When you pull the tab, the contents don’t squirt in your face… Notice it has a point at the top for ease of entry; it’s just the right shape for the human mouth… and it’s even curved toward the face to make the whole process so much easier.”
I’m hoping against hope that, in this case, a banana is just a banana. :-)
*snicker*
Ramen, Luaphacim… :)
Okay, I just watched it. (The soda can and banana part, that is–I’m not watching a whole half hour of that drivel.)
This is a completely anti-intellectual response, but may I just say, what the fuck, Charles?
Maybe–MAYBE–this might make more sense to me if bananas were the main part of our diet. As it stands, though…
I wonder what would happen if one were to use their own logic back at them, e.g., breasts fit perfectly in my hands, so it’s obvious that God made me a lesbian.
Again, we’ve got false dichotomies going on here. You can believe in both God and the Big Bang–the similarities between the details of the Big Bang and the beginning of Genesis are striking, as long as you don’t take the Bible literally…
But that’s another issue entirely. :)
Speaking of biblical literalism… I think I’m about to post on end-time wackos over at my blog. M was listening to those awful Left Behind books on tape last night as we drove home — I think she just likes seeing me get mad, the little minx. :-)
Dear Ray Comfort and Kirk Cameron,
If you two are ever in Albuquerque, I have some dildos I’d like to show you. You’ll notice that the almighty god sex toy maker produces them so that they fit snugly into my vagina. They have bases that fit comfortably into my hand, or my girlfriend’s hand, or into a harness, so that my pleasure is taken into consideration from a variety of positions/uses.
This is just the tip of the iceberg, in terms of details regarding how perfect my dildos are. I can’t wait to share this with you.
In Sex & Ecstasy,
Sera

I am a Christian. I like bananaes. I also like avocadoes, tomatoes, peaches, artichokes and the occasional steake or slice of ham. I believe that all these wonderful, eatable things were made by a Loving Generous, merciful, Righteous God.
Following the “logic” presented in the above videoe, I would be forced to presume that, except for the bananae, nor of the items I’ve listed were made by that same God.
I also am given to wonder if, when poor Kirk Cameron was “a devout atheist,” if he often woke in a cold sweat after his bananae nightmares. I shudder to think.
And, yes, I still like to poke occational fun t J, Danforth Quayle, too.

Woudn’t a banana also fit into the mouth and hand of a monkey? So, if the same fruit that fits into our hands can also fit into a monkey’s hand….Saaay!
