Default Religion is like a Penis PSA

Religion is like a penis

It's fine to have one
It's fine to be proud of it
But please don't whip it out in public and start waving it around
And PLEASE don't shove it down my children's throats


that is all

Same thing can be said about worldly views, especially the THEORY of evolution, which by Darwin's own words, has been disproved.

I can give it to you right now.

"If it could be demonstrated that any complex organ existed which could not possibly have been formed by numerous, successive, slight modifications, my theory would absolutely break down."
--Charles Darwin, Origin of Species

This is disproved by the flagellum motor, which out of its 36 parts, 34 are unique in nature and can be found no where else. Also, they cannot be found that they are brought on by any of the above criteria.

yet they can't be found that they weren't brought on by said criteria . . . hence its still a valid theory. just like creation is nothing more than a theory.


man roamed the land with dinosaurs :run:

I agree 100% swaggs.

There are those of us on this forum (myself and Swaggs included) who have faith in our religion. And I don't think I ever see anyone on here sticking it down anyone's throats.

Now I know this joke is not pointed at the forum, rather those crazy fanatics you see on the side of the street, on tv, and those asinine youtube videos. They of course give religion a bad name - as any fanatic gives any movement a bad reputation.

I chuckled at the original post - agreed with it's content, but agree with Swaggs - it can go for any view or theory. I think the last view being pushed on anyone around here would be religion... politics on the other hand... lol


Just tossing in my $0.02

werd. and I'm not religious at all. but I agree that evolutionists are just as guilty of shoving their ideas down peoples' throats as creationists.
