"Oh ye silly Athiests, why do you doubt the presence of a loving God, when he hath gifted us this hallowed banana, who's groves fit the contours of our hands, who's delicious center is so gaurded by biodegradable covering, whose ripeness is determinable by it's skin, tis soft and free of seeds, surely tis proof God exists and that he loves us so. His creation is perfect and without need for Evolution."
Actually, you may not know it, but Banana's are actually proof that Evolution exists. Man himself has engineered the banana to grow in a way he has deemed acceptable. This is why Banana's are so "nice"

Isn't this farce a bit of a dead horse? I mean, is there anyone who doesn't laugh at Ray Comfort? Seriously, the first time I saw the video of him making the argument I thought it was satire.

I just thought it'd be fun to write something like this.
also, seriously check out those links, the last one, especially.
yeah, human engineered to the edge of extinction inside 50 years.....
I WANT mah bananies!! I WANT dem foreva!!!
Damn you man! I came in here expecting to see a link involving monkeys trained to do shakespeare and I get a link to that ray comfort shithead. That twat has actually re-released a version of origin of species with a forward that basically acts as an attack on the author and content of the book.
Personally I'd very much like to smack him in the face with a hard back copy of the real book (perfectly contoured to match my hand, as if designed by an intelligent being with a brain rather than a magic sky pixie). or better yet nip back through time, borrow charlie for a few minutes and get HIM to smack comfort in the face

I've had people tell me cultivation is just a lie, a trick to make Ray look silly (not that he needs it). Sadly, no Banana specialists (??) near me to direct them too, but I'm not sure if I would bother with that bunch of people.
Sad attempt at humor and making fun of others is so easy, but so selective at the same time.
Bananas....Good times, good times. =)
Seriously, I can't stand all the arguments on evolution anyways, so I won't read it. Funny quote though. =)

These people tell you dinosaur bones are fake because we have no way to tell if carbon dating is correct, because the earth has always been operating on a different scale?
it's true, the earth always has operated on a different scale, so the rate of decay would change over the years, however there have been other methods since then that have validated the carbon dating methods.
These people use scientific terms they once heard on TV and never looked up the definition for in an attempt to distract you from the fact they've got their eyes screwed shut, their fingers in their ears and are screaming LALALALALALALA NOT LISTENING LALALALALALALA
Someone made a Crocoduck song (fourth down, download link is the down arrow button to the side).

Considering that carbon dating is only useful up to a maximum timescale of ~60,000 years, anyone who speaks of carbon dating with regards to dinosaur fossils has absolutely no clue what they're talking about. Radiometric dating methods used for dinosaur fossils need to be useful over a much longer timescale, such as uranium-lead dating and potassium-argon dating.

They're more the type who think living Humans and 'living' Dinosaurs existed in the same time period.
Generally knowledgeable people, until you start talking 'age of earth'. Not all of them are religious as well, but when asking them about it out of curiosity it's a 'I just believe this' response. I don't push them on it, conversations like that among friends can only end badly.

There were actually living dinosaurs back when my father grew up. He told me so himself. Also, the world was apparently black & white back then.
