The other day some one linked a video about how theists explained the impossibility of evolution because no one has found life spontaneously generating in a peanut butter jar. I do not have that link, but I’m sure about 12,000 people out there do. My theory on that video is that it is an atheist conspiracy to make theists look like idiots. No one who has the intelligence to dress themselves could possibly buy into that so it has to be a conspiracy by atheists. ‘Fess up some one. Who is out there not playing fair?

Creationists are hitting "new lows" with their every argument.

Well, I've heard a number of other theist attempts to "debunk" the theory of evolution. None of the arguments I've heard are really any more rational than the "peanut butter theory".

Oh no, that is Chuck Missler. He's a total GEM of the creationist movement.

Good ol' Chuck's the one who does the Creationist's statistics. That whole "God doesn't exist is mathematically impossible" debacle was him too. He's an engineer with an amazing head for massive numbers, and no regard for things like "premises" and "basic facts." He takes assumptions that are wildly inaccurate, and through math that I can't even begin to follow (though I'm told his numbers check out) reaches these stunning conclusions, i.e. the jar of peanut butter. So with these flawed premises, he totally debunks himself before he gets started, but still (brilliantly, lets face facts) figures out the statistical (im)probabilities of the world.

I've heard some wingnutty arguments against evolution that sounded too weird to be real.

But then, there are websites out there saying there are footprints of some caveman out walking his pet dinosaur in Paluxy, Texas, so I'm sad to say it might not be a conspiracy.

So does the "Bam Theory". The Bam Theory was saying that the earth and moon was created by the stars and the universe was already made. Bla Bla Bla.

If theists can have a creation museum telling people that Adam and Eve used dinos as transport they can believe that theory

Are you going to 'out' the evil atheist who is trying to make a fool of christians. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

That's the reason Poe's Law exists. It's hard to make a satire more ridiculous than the real thing.

It's an asinine explanation put forth by people who do not understand the very basics of science and believed by utter morons.
Honestly, the crocoduck is far more amusing. It's just as incorrect, but at least it made me laugh.

No, it is real. we can not make this stuff up. Crockoducks, banana design, and peanut butter. Yeah it all sounds way to crazy for me to come up with.

if you haven't come across is, using a banana as evidence for god is even better. An atheist friend won't even believe me those guys are not professional comedians.
