I see this very often on social media and I puke in my mouth every time.

MRI scans will show you a brain as will an autopsy.

This old canard... Even if it was true, what it is supposed to prove?

RE: So much stupid
Lets pretend for a moment that the absurd story copied and pasted into the OP is actually true. I KNOW it isn't, but lets just pretend for a moment that it was true.

Wouldn't any decent professor's rebuttal have gone something along the lines of this:

student's name, If you would liike to compare apples to apples lets look at what cold actually is: Cold, like evil can be perceived and it can be named. The murder of an innocent 4 year old would be considered nearly universally "evil" anywhere on this planet. Likewise, zero degrees F would also be considered nearly universally "cold" on this planet ... regardless that it is merely the absence of heat, we have named and quantified this condition.

So, what is the absence of evil? The absence of evil is anything moderate to "good" ... it is NOT "god." You see, cold has a quantifiable opposite: heat. If evil is going to be likened to cold it must have a quantifiable opposite. The closest thing we can come to is "good," not god. The proof of this, lies in history. Since your god did not show up until as recently as 2000 years ago and the notion of good and evil has existed for thousands of years before that, than according to your theory, there should've been nothing but evil in the world. That is not the case.


I might as well say that the presence of evil is the absence of oranges. Oranges grow heavily in the southern, warmer climates. Perhaps that's why there's so much more good down in the Bible belt. What kind of arrogant SOB gets to claim that the absence of HIS god is the cause for evil. Sorry stupid, but if something is not evil than it may very well be nothing at all, but at best, it's only going to be considered "good." Your god has nothing to do with it.

"The greatest deception men suffer is from their own opinions" - Leonardo da Vinci

"I think I use the term “radical” rather loosely, just for emphasis. If you describe yourself as “atheist,” some people will say, “Don’t you mean ‘agnostic’?” I have to reply that I really do mean atheist, I really do not believe that there is a god; in fact, I am convinced that there is not a god (a subtle difference). I see not a shred of evidence to suggest that there is one ... etc., etc. It’s easier to say that I am a radical atheist, just to signal that I really mean it, have thought about it a great deal, and that it’s an opinion I hold seriously." - Douglas Adams (and I echo the sentiment)

This story doesn't consider that evolution was created from deductive reasoning, a skill that Albert Einstien used to create his famous theory of relativity and others of the like.
