Arguing versions is like arguing over which "Batman" actor was better.

So dumbass, do you even know what the implication of "replenish" entails?
Or do you just wish to sling insults and watch how fast I piss you off?

Adam West, naturally.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

Well then if we are "insulting" you, then a sure fire way to shut us up is with evidence. Getting pissed off at us picking on your sky daddy makes him not only look like he has a thin skin, but also makes him look like a selfish narcissist being more worried about what we call him than actual real human suffering. We picked on your sky daddy, and?

Evidence for dishes=Dishes exist.
Evidence for dishwashers= Dishwashers exist.
Evidence for your god=0
Evidence for any god=0
So lets look at the scoreboard.
Dishboy(thats me)=2
Godboy(that is you)=0
Are you certain you want to keep score?

Tough guy, eh? Who cares?
If we're supposed to believe Genesis 1, why is the story completely different in Genesis 2? Why was there a need for a second creation story? It just shows that the Bible is just a collection of fantasies, there is no consistent truth in it. To follow its rules is like guiding your life by Grimm fairy tales. Reword their meanings all you want, but fantasy is just fantasy.
A true god would never let something that is totally unclear and severely debatable be his "word." If there really was a God, there wouldn't be tens of thousands of religions out there trying to identify him. It's just stupid.

One wonders if you make a habit of treating people in service industries so rudely.
One also wonders if you like spit in your food.
Spit might be the best of it. There was a running joke in a series of readers' letter to adult comic Viz some years back, supposedly from kitchen and waiting staff of various restaurants that Michael Winner would dine in, each detailing how they had - ahem - added their own 'special daddy's sauce' to his food. One such letter told how the chef didn't have time to adulterate his meal and said that Winner had sent it back because it "tasted funny".
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.'

@the OP:
When creationism, young or old, leads to technology that works and which could not have been achieved any other way, wake me.

Well, first of all, there are some very knowledgeable scientists that make vids on YT. So, blowing off all of YT is disingenuous.
Second, I was a bio major before I changed it to Comp Sci.
And third, I have a shortcut on my desktop to talkorigins that I refer to constantly. Most ofter when someone makes ridiculous creationist claims, but sometimes I just read it for the knowledge.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

I'm the same, really. Here, TalkOrigins, RationalWiki, FSTDT, The Atheist Experience and YouTube make up most of my god-denying internet time.
Everything else is porn. Obviously.
