Are all atheists this ill-informed about religion?

When I was young I knew a guy who grew pot plants in the space under the steps of his mom's home. They never got light from the sun but did just fine.
They either did get light from the sun, or were supplied by some other source designed to mimic light from the sun.  Do you think that 2x4's actually stop sunlight from reaching a place?
Quote:Yep. Take a plant and put it in total darkness for 24 hours. It will survive. So, even without the first argument, this position fails.
They can live for a long time without direct access to visible or noticeable light, but will die in minutes if the sun were to be extinguished, and of course they could not live to begin with if the sun did not exist.  
Quote:Uh, yeah, either one of them works. You can test it yourself.
Actually, plants -can't- live without the sun or a replacement for it.  
Quote:Again, you can easily test this yourself.
Easily, no....we'd have to find some place with no sun.  Nowhere in our solar system qualifies, for obvious reasons.
Quote:What's the difference?

The difference is rather massive............in one instance..you are in the shade..in another,  a giant fucking star is missing.......Plants -require- a solar system with a sun in it, that's an indisputable fact regarding which there will be no argument.  

If you have to argue against that fact in order to excuse disparities in your myths...... that's it, they're done.  This shit is retarded..wtf are you doing to your holy books.......?  They got the "order of creation" wrong, that's all there is to it.  If this story happened in reality it did not happen as described. Not only do we know it did not happen as described, it's in-arguably impossible. I can't help but ask here...you had a neighbor that grew pot under his steps....and through some hilarious misconception about how plants and light work this has been taken..by you...to be supportive of the Genesis narrative? That's what comes to mind........

..............really?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
