The stupidest thing a creatonist has ever said to you

[nasher168]

... wat?
His brain is fusing the Persian Invasion of Greece with WWI.

the stupid just made my brain hurt.

No, he's actually referring to the Greek War of Independence.

From my Googling, though, he seems to have ignored the fact that the "ALMOST 500" unequipped Greeks also had help from 2000 trained soldiers against a Turkish force of about 7000. The 2000 were led by a brilliant commander and held off the Ottomans for several days while another Ottoman force of about 1500 tried to hit the rear and rout the Greeks. This smaller force was then defeated by about 500 local men and women who inflicted crippling losses upon it and forced it to withdraw whilst the 2000 soldiers drove back the 7000 Turks.

It was an unlikely outcome, but hardly miraculous. Alexander and Hannibal both did better in their time. It was a case of good Greek leadership, local bravery and poor Ottoman leadership.

This guy can draw 76 angry faces in a picture of a splashing water drop. Therefore Jesus is lord and savior. QED.

No, I'm not confusing eugenics, evolution theory, natural selection, universal common descent or anything else...I've studied and read more about them than probably many of you have (recently completed "Your Inner Fish" and have read several books and countless articles and videos from leading Darwinists and atheists like that). I could have been clear in a couple posts (have been VERY rushed), but there's no misunderstanding of them going on on my side. For every hour most of you've studied Christianity or creation science, I've studied a minimum of 10 hours of atheists and evolutionists at the top level. I'm not infallible by any means and some for sure know more than I do, but I am not uninformed at all about what I am criticizing. The fact that most of you don't even know that ancient people viewed faith as having a strong connection with evidence shows that you and those you know don't know very much at all about the Bible and are not in a rational position of being able to judge it in any way.

That actually supports his opponents - he clearly states he's studied atheists a lot. Meaning, he hasn't had much time to think about the stupidity of the Bible.

I have a hard time knowing how to react when I hear Ken Ham's logical pià¨ce de résistance:

If you weren't there how do you know the Earth is millions of years old (or something to that effect)

One first has to wonder how on Earth Ken Ham thinks the legal system would operate upon this logic. All those suspected of crimes would be released without conviction based upon their flawless defence that 'because you weren't there, you can't prove what happened'.

The most hilarious thing about his logic though is that it can be so perfectly turned against him.

So Ken, were you there when Jesus supposedly rose from the dead?

It's easy to laugh at such moronic idiocy, but then the realisation that he goes around telling this stuff to children who do not know any better hits you. That thought kinda takes away the humour and makes me want to destroy things...

Evolution is a fact. There were two snakes on Noah's ark. From those two snakes we have thousands of species of snakes today. The same goes for all the kinds of animals on the Ark. Evolution changes living things from very complex, divers life forms to simpler, more specialized animals or plants.

:lol: I love this, claiming that from two of a "kind" nearly 3,000 different species of snake arose in a few thousand years... Their rate of speciation must have been way beyond the level that even the most hardcore evolutionary biologist would deem ridiculous.

That for all we know we are an atom on a piece of dog shit on some kids shoe and somehow thought that this proved something

There are 47 pages to this topic and I have not read all of them. So I apologize is this has been post before, but the stupidest thing I have ever heard, is dinosaur bones were put into the ground by Satan to mislead the world.

Haha, yeah, I believe Hovind may be behind that.

Or well, from what I remember, Hovind suggested God put the bones there to makes awe in wonder or some crap. He may have changed his "explanation" for the bones since.

But I don't think we've seen that quote on here, and it's really a "good" one.

meh, creationists keep spouting debunked arguments like a broken fountain... it can be quite aggrivating to see certain arguments return when you think we have evolved beyond a certain of stupidity.
creationism is nothing more then proof for EVO-DEVO on intellect.

if you really see it as a problem that stupid things get repeated, you might as well make a list, perhaps a bingo-card to see if they can actually come up with an argument that hasn't been "presented" for the Nth time.

Not sure how that is so. Care to explain?

certainly.
if we describe intellect as an object that is possible of evolving (though this may be in a very broad sense).
from creationism we can see how intellect evolved from envoking gods for everything to explaining it via evidence and reasoning.
were creationism take over competely a school system and run freely, it would most certainly start to ensist their prefered deity is the explenation for a certain phenomena, even though a perfect naturalistic explanation is present.
eventhough if this were to happen, creationism will never be like creationism was in the 1600, due to the loss of certain grounds on knowledge ( thanks to scientific discoveries).

A thought: if a god created everything, then that same god created evil in the world, also science and those who believe science over god. How do creationists get around that, I wonder? "Anything you can draw a circle around cannot explain itself without referring to something outside the circle, something you have to assume but cannot prove."

Free will. /devil'sadvocate

 

[Nelipot]

In that case, shouldn't they all shut up because arguing would be going against the will of their god?

 

[australopithecus]

Ah, but evil isn't God's will is it? Apologists will cry that it is free will that causes evil and as such God is blameless. Even though an omniscient god would already know what would be the outcome. Or that omniscience contradicts free will. Its not very consistent but let's ignore that.

 

[Nelipot]

Cake and eat it, methinks... either a god created everything or not. There's no middle ground.

I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.
,Isaiah 45:7

Not much to argue when God seemingly admits it.

thats easy... when they created the jesus figure, they created his/her counterpart: the devil/demon satan.
thats how they manage to get around the whole loving got, yet creating evil part.

hmm, if jesus is mexican, is satan canadian??

My knowledge of things biblical is (deliberately) sketchy at best but didn't the bible say that god told satan to make Job suffer? Therefore the evils suffered in the tale of Job are down to the Xtian god, satan being merely a means. And if that is the story, then the figure of satan as depicted, i.e. a puppet for the Xtian god, should surely be pitied. I'm not sure what message that conveys about the god in question but there's little to admire IMO.
