We came from a dirt golem and his rib wife, dammit! we didn't evolve from no sea creature! Despite the fact that we need salt to live, yet our bodies don't produce it. And our fingers and toes are slightly webbed, which would help us swim. And about the only other mammals on the planet that lack as much hair as we do spend much of their time in and around water.

You can throw the word accident around, and tell us that our lives are meaningless if we don't get it from an external source, but that just makes you sound ignorant. Of course we know Ken Ham is purposefully ignorant, so no surprise there.

Ha, ha! I caught that ad! I thought it was pretty cool that a generic advertisement aimed at the general population referenced evolution. I guess Carnival is optimistic about the enlightenment of the average person.

I'm glad the nutters are pissed. Fuck them! Devil
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

I don't see any suggestions to "worship" the ocean in that blurb. Is Ken somehow convinced you can't appreciate anything without worshiping it? Sheesh, and he thinks our lives are sad?

Love that all he really had there was appeals to emotions, consequences, and incredulity. As usual, the Hamster has absolutely no cogent position at all.

Thanks, Min, now I really am going to be sick...

I see Ham's rejection and strawmanning of evolution as nothing more than projection. Just because he was undoubtedly an accident, it doesn't mean that everything else was as well.
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.'

Oh, come on. It's no where near as upsetting as the other one!

As far as the original video is concerned:

It's really effective, a touching speech and beautiful images. I'm just bummed that it is a commercial for a stupid cruise ship, which is about the unnatural thing you can do while on water, and not in Cosmos.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

That's all that any of them have. Humans evolving doesn't make him feel special, and neither does the idea that he might live on through his deeds, instead of living on by being immortal. He wants to be a divinely created god slave.
