Because the coconut is a real b*tch to get open.
For those of you who are lost, some Christians cite the banana with it's easy to open "packaging", palatability and ability to fit in the human hand easily as proof that God exists. Nevermind the fact that there are hundreds if not thousands of other non-banana types of fruit out there.

Yahoo! used to automatically put a question mark at the end of a phrase. So I dunno why they didn't this time.

I didn't know that the banana they referred to was a hybrid. I like learning stuff.

Oh FYI I'm neither a Christian or an atheist. I just like debates.

Oy. I had no idea that's the argument Christians use. I always assumed it had something to do with that "atheists think we evolved from monkeys" nonsense. That argument is more absurd than I imagined.
So yeah I'm a Christian but you're right, by their reasoning they really would have a tough time explaining the coconut. I tried to open one once. Not so easy.

There is a lot of humor potential here! If He exists then I suppose he made both banana and coconut along with mosquitoes and flies. There is no proof of the existence of God. Religions are really based on superstition. The difference is that a superstition doesn't ask for 10% of your income and doesn't create any holidays.
Tha atheists cant prove that there is no God either. For either side to attempt it is ludicris. The agnostics have the better position and they don't try to kill people who do not share theis viewpoint.
I just checked; my bananas have gone bad; should have bought a coconut.

I was fascinated by that banana video. They used a banana that is a sterile hybrid developed by United Fruit 120 years ago as an example of god's design. There are 750 different kinds of bananas and they have 2,3,4,5 and more edges and some are entire hands fused together. Amazing how stupid people can be.

Does that mean that all monkeys are Christians?
The invention of the beer with a twist cap is my proof. You no longer needed a bottle opener, it's quite tasty, and the bottle fits in the hand like a glove.

we don't choose televangelists, we would desire to make our inhabitants greater smart. that could in basic terms ensue by coaching. there's a reason that somewhat secular industrialized societies have larger consistent with capita earning than the U.S., they make judgements in accordance with provable info, as hostile to no longer doing so. coach the human beings to think of wisely mutually as they're in school and our united states might desire to be the terrific interior the international. shop issues as they're, and we are going to quickly finally end up competing with China to be the international's maximum inexpensive hard paintings industry.

Coconuts aside? What about a can of spam? If you lose the key and then come back to it later.... is there any hope for you? or are you screwed? I guess this means there's just no hope for us born again Christians. *wink*
(love the coconut analogy! Perfect!!)
