My child is a better critical thinker than I am
August 29, 2012 at 8:11 pm (This post was last modified: August 29, 2012 at 8:16 pm by Gambit.)
I found this post I made on Ken Ham's Facebook page, under a fake account of mine. It seems I am becoming dumber by the day; seeing as my daughter displays better critical thinking than I am capable of. She was 4 at the time; so yeah, I'm a dumbass. Sad If you can't read it, I apologize. Just do that ctrl and + shortcode to increase the image size.

"Again... blah, blah, blah. You are SO clever Nathan, really. You have shown us all the light of reason. Are you satisfied now?"

Well? Are you?

I mean, how can anyone argue against the sheer intellectualism of responses like this 'Michael Janik' person's? Game over, man. Game over!
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Not yet; I was lured to that page with the promise of blowjobs. Where are my blowjobs?

How can you resist that sexy wink?

Either he's showing you what he just found up his nose - or maybe his arse - or else he's offering you some kind of optional special service.

Thanks to Alei's son and your daughter, some faith in mankind has been restored. But what is up with the douche at the end?! Big Grin
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

Lol It's predominantly a Christian page, so they were none too happy that my daughter had the gall to formulate a thought of her own.

Beware of the thinking four-year-olds! (I wish my nephew was as sensible.. '-_-)

Prefers a harsh truth to a comforting lie.

Ah, out of the mouths of babes...
Kids really do get it and the way they think is amazing. It's a shame that many adults learn to dampen their curiosity and free-thought.
