Oh look, an original thought!

No wait, just more copying and pasting of other people's material. False alarm -_-

You've really got a hardon for Prof Dawkins, haven't you Randy?

Or rather, as usual, someone else's hardon.
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.'

No, don't be. I've always loved over that image.

OK, for the millionst time - I'm not a follower of any of the prominent atheists. But what do you expect this Wiker character's reply would look like, given that "Benjamin Wiker (born 1960) is a Roman Catholic ethicist."

So biased judges biased. There's no more to it than that.

Randy, answer me this: would it hurt if for no reason, I approached you with a cleaver and cut off your hand?
'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom

"If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech

You know, god changed his mind after the old masturbation, I mean, testament. I feel sorry for that inaginary thing, god. So much human error being assigned to that.

Wiker (an ethicist, not a scientist) is widely dismissed by truly intelligent people. Some of his nuttier claims are that there is no evidence for natural selection, because Darwin was part of a conspiracy to undermine belief in God, and that natural selection is not compatible with natural law. Having thus disposed of the messenger, I see no real reason to bother with the message.

Evolution gets turned into a god and deified? Too rich. And the descriptive words he assigns to evolution, hilarious.

Thanks for the laugh.
