Think of a Stupid Question to Ask a Theist

I want to play a little game. All you have to do is come up a stupid question an atheist would ask a theist. You or someone should answer the question and explain why the question is stupid or is not stupid.
Atheist and Theist are very general categories, but you don't have to be general. You can be very specific about the subcategory of atheism and the subcategory of theism in your question.

If god created me in his image, then why does god have an appendix and a vestigial tail?

What is god's purpose? Why does/she/it exist?
If god is all knowing, then why did god banish Adam and Eve from eating the forbidden fruit for which he knew they would?
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

I want to get into deadly poison drinking because I heard a rumor that antifreeze tastes simply amazing, but I'm not sure which poisons the holy spirit is effective against. Can you help?

Why does god hate shrimp, and hold the eating of shrimp in the same regard as homosexual intercourse?

Why do you reject science?
"Sisters, you know only the north; I have traveled in the south lands. There are churches there, believe me, that cut their children too, as the people of Bolvangar did--not in the same way, but just as horribly. They cut their sexual organs, yes, both boys and girls; they cut them with knives so that they shan't feel. That is what the Church does, and every church is the same: control, destroy, obliterate every good feeling. So if a war comes, and the Church is on one side of it, we must be on the other, no matter what strange allies we find ourselves bound to."

Oh! Here's another one:
If Eve was but a mere afterthought to god, once he saw how lonely Adam was, why did he create Adam with a scrotum packed with seminal fluid?

Actually, most of these aren't stupid questions.
Here's the stupid question I'd ask a fundie: Does it really hurt to be that stupid, or is that just an urban legend?
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
