Nick Gisburne: Re: The atheist's nightmare: the banana

[sient005]

should get a jackfruit.... that has many spikes >.<

[Jaybird196]

You mentioned onions giving off a gas that react to create sulfuric acid in the eyes, and I have say, wow. I love onions,but never knew this. Thanks.

[streeterville773]

Anyone else worried about that guys fingers when he was slicing that coconut? :x I was expecting him to lose one in that clip. hahaha

[pochopaz7381]

@DanaLaneTaylor They changed after the flood XD

[DoctorCapitalist]

Monkeys open bananas from the bottom by pinching it, it's the proper way.

Science: 1 God: 0

[claynate]

i eat raw onions all the time.

[gingerweasel2]

My favorite part of the banana argument that its current form is well documented to have been basically created by humans, through cultivation. The original, "plantain," is not very human-friendly and usually has to be cooked or otherwise processed. Good going, god!

[DanaLaneTaylor]

So god didn't create coconuts?

[websnarf]

@DanaLaneTaylor : Well only in the same sense that Scooby Doo also created coconuts.

[BrandurJustinussen]

@websnarf Wow, Scooby Doo must be a genious then!

[qwer58j]

Fighting against a religious argument with logic

That’s low

It’s hardly a fair fight.

[q1000101]

And how about those who are allergic to bananas? God is either an incompetent bumbling buffoon or a sadistic asshole. Or both.

[TheAnonymousSeeker]

God damnit, now I want a banana.

[miket1m]

This is ridiculous

[turtlen]

Maybe kirk cameron is secretly an athiest trying to denounce the christians even more with this insanely stupid idea, give ppl something to jibber and laugh/argue about, meh, you never know

[websnarf]

@turtlen : Well lots of Christians seems to be like that. TruthfulChristian, NephilimFree, JezuzFreak777, Philos71, Geerup, SableChicken, etc ... They are all at least as stupid as Kirk Cameron and Ray Comfort. They are all roughly equivalent in just the extreme level of self-defeatism -- I don't think they are all atheists in disguise.

[turtlen]

@websnarf lol well maybe they are? i know plenty of christians who differenciate from one another in views and opinions like these tho, and many others aswell.. its just this banana idea is so totally insane it has to be a joke lol.. it makes 'christians' look bad..

[Josey2006]

The guy violated a copyright on a banana?  I thought he was very careful not to show any "Chiquita" label no doubt placed by God to indicate His approval for such a fine banana.

[ruhani777]

Wow I'm glad I stopped being Muslim...

[daftage]

pineapple lid, lol

[eksyte]

Bahaha @ 3:22!

[TheWildhawke]

It's clear that pineapples, and potatoes and onions and coconuts are not meant to be consumed by good Christians. They are clearly heathen produce.

[KarlRuprectKroenen]

give this guy a tv show, we'll air it everyday after pat robertson's preeching. five bucks says he'll have 5x the ratings from the "10%" of atheists in the world

[Nagneto]

This guy is Brillant with a captial B. Fucking facists youtube is, and you know why they banned him? Because they KNOW the fundie muslims won't hesitate to come and blow up their facities.

Thanks so much for putting up his vids man.

[ScottTenorman1]

So freaking funny. Ray Comfort and Kirk Cameron are a pair of clowns, no offense to those of you in the circus business.

[frostzor]

hahahaha at 7:00

[indevildual]

For every one fruit that we like and grow and modify, there are thousands if not millions of fruits and vegetables that we don't eat. Actually, some of that stuff we don't eat is medicine. But some is poison. The more you know the more you know the difference for your mind.

[yahooriffic]

it's amazing we have to waste our time answering to these religious people with their grade 12 education

and by the way, it's not just christians who are obtuse... muslims, jews, etc are all the same.

[malkirion]

Forgot to mention that the cultivated banana is sterile, it can't even reproduce on it's own. We have to take part of it's underground stem, cut it specifically and replant it to grow another banana tree. In other words, God's little plant can't even survive on it's own.

[StoicandAltruistic]

Did I mention the watermelon and coconut already?

[gmacv1957]

Any chance you have Nick's other videos? I see that he has deleted them all and has "left the building". I'm crushed.  Truly crushed!

[ominousone8]

lol, Christians are so dumb.

[ArrogantAtheist]

Atheists FTW!!

[floridafam3]

This video never gets old. It's just as funny every time I watch it.

[69Thrasha69]

Have you ever seen a natural wild banana, This is the domesticated banana... hmm deciding what is the norm does sound like christianity now does it, Please people wake up, its plaigerized, do some homework

[yuckman3000]

lol

[BoozyBeggar]

Some videos just get better and better.

[TzekeT]

gods almighty banana factory

[MekaGabe]

i lmao with the pineapple. nice job god! lol.

[DJJetplane]

Dude. You did it. I am no longer an Atheist. YOU are my God :D

Props!!

[PurushaDesa]

I love Grisburne's deadpan northern accent.

[joetwizzy]

yorkshire!! yorkshire!!

[muranziel]

Damn i laughed hard when he took the pineapple out :D

[MotionFur]

My hand is so perfectly shaped for my dick.

THANK YOU GOD!

[TheSupremeSkeptic]

Clearly God wants us to masturbate.

Now go and do what the lord indented us to do.

[spartan1010101]

@TheSupremeSkeptic ok, masturbation is ok...but sex is bad? O___O thanks for fucking my mind up ;D

[DublinAtheist]

This video is brilliant. Lol

[Mrmikeshelton]

Why was this guy banned? I just don't understand Youtube sometimes.

[websnarf]

Some nonsensical copyright thing. He's back as Gisburne2000.

[sickkid1992]

love this. agree with everything. super funny

[tiby2403]

so...who came first, the can or the banana ?

[allenomak]

Lol ^^

[saibooba]

favorite line "God tried to poison us with the potatoes, and blind us with the onion".

[dlandon2000]

I laughed my ass off!

[RyanLeeParis]

Just because some fruits and vegetables are hard to get into doesn't mean God didn't create them. Clearly, a fruit is different from a person or animal, and is meant for food.

[websnarf]

Remember that this video is a *RESPONSE* to a theist video that claims that god exists because fruit like bananas are perfectly made for man.

[saibooba]

if it's meant for food, then why are they poisonous? If Earth was designed with US IN MIND, then why the fuck are there stuff that can kill us?

[websnarf]

Oh I am sure the existence of poisonous plants is to punish man for "original sin". Isn't it obvious that a truly pious man who is humble before the lord will never accidentally eat a poisonous mushroom? ;)

[assatashakira]

Dear Zeus I want a Fundie to try it. It would be so entertaining.

[daichi2097]

God didn't fuck up with the pineapple - clearly, he didn't intend for us to eat it.

All pineapple eaters will burn in Hell for this transgression!

[LizziesPinkCage]

hahaha

[oxxTAMiixxo]

haha omq this is fukinq funny!!

[Skullshot1326]

god you really fucked up on this one.

LMFAO

[BIGgourami]

aslo the 'top' of the banana is the bottom while it's growing

[vaea46]

well im polynesian, we have lots of coconuts, back then we didnt have knives or jackhammers or anytools to open a coconut or pineapple - well the story goes like this - A samoan man - picked up a coconut that fell of the tree. he was looking at it, and how to open it. took him 10days.. he got fustrated. and threw it at his wifes head. and it cracked open.. NO JOKES. for real. so back then men or woman use to throw it at there spouses or some hard object like the tree truck or rock etc etc

[ManicEightBall]

What about the artichoke? I think God owes me one for that mess.

[cornflakeclusters]

This guy is fucking hilarious.

[nativeofsandiego]

Hahaha

[websnarf]

Only a slave would ask *SOMEONE ELSE* this question. The question is only valuable/useful and answerable to oneself.

[Omid45]

haha

[Omid45]

haha, this guy is fucking funny! i'm strait, and i think i love this guy haha!!! fucking religious people, why can't they think like us? with logic, and common sense, and science, and evolution? Also we forgot one really good fruit! the good old coconut, you need a fucking jack hammer for that one!!! was god smoking weed on those! or was he busy fucking marry to get Jesus hahah!

[machineofgreen]

pineapple is kicass :D

[annoyingweirdo]

oo..the guy whacking the coconut with the big knife...i was scared he'd slice his fingers off XD

[bdcarlitosway]

hmmmm makes me wonder if god is gay, I mean the banana thing kind of resembles something...

[socer777]

yeah, ud think a heterosexual god would make more vagina shaped foods lol

[flubeca]

Oh lol. You are now my god.

[astupidbean]

i personally find it very hard to believe that this so called "god" created everything ever in the existence of everything. the bible is a fiction story that old guys in the time of jesus wrote so they could have a bunch of zombie-like human beings yell at everyone that doesn't believe the bible is the end all be all of everything. i have no problem with people who are religious, but i fucking hate bible thumpers.

[Jl200]

LOL!

Atheists for the win. =)

[EGLchan]

Omg, you're awesome! 5 stars!

[rodman332]

???

I eat raw onions...why do u have to be insane?

[eduzitcho]

lawlz

[Herufaia]

If god created the world and such then tell me....

WHY CAN'T WE EAT EVERY FRUIT AND VEGEATABLE/FUNGUS ALIVE!?

Simple good sirs they evolved poisnous defenses over milions of years so that things would NOT eat them. The ones that are edible evolved so that things would eat them and spread there seeds.

Then theres the ones we made edible....through cooking or interbreeding.

[jopiira]

Mister Nick Gisburne: Why god didnt make that cool zip system only for banana? Why not for potatoes, carrots or pineapple example? There we find a hole in your way of thinking.

I am atheist from Finland. I think you are just iqnored or dumb...

Little for thinking for you.

What if god is existent and in sky there is god with 6 hands and face of the elefant. "HAHHAAHAA YOU BELIVE WRONG HAHHAHAAHAA"

[mattfox06]

god, you really fucked up on this one

[ustickx]

i came up with the same pineapple argument when i first heard the banana argument

[HookedOnHooka]

what about the coconut agrument, god fucked that one up

[poddyweb]

Maybe we should not be eating Pineapples.

[slicydicy1]

I remember that passage from Romans... do not eat from the tree of good and evil hard citricy fruits

[websnarf]

Oh yes and who could skip over that passive in Revelations: "... and the hard hairy things with the milky substances in them are right out."

[jasamaja]

*gigglesnorts*

[Anghellik9]

"(mutters) you just dont know what you're doing god."

[AceKing47]

Man... God just got owned. There's also another video, the "Athiests Nightmare Debunked" which is similarly fantastic.

[UbikValis2]

I'm surprised he didn't go into the fact that in many regions of the world edible and poisonous mushrooms are almost very difficult to tell apart! What kind of a sadistic bastard deity would pull that little trick?

[wychicov]

nice.

[larsnord]

Lol. Pineapple was the first thing I thought of when I saw the Cameron/Comfort video.

[Superphilipp]

Funny, the first thing I thought of was penisses.

[TempleOfSin]

All these other things were designed by God umm... to... give mankind ambition! Ya! That's the ticket.

I can reach into my ass and pull out more ideas if anyone would like me to.

[Anghellik9]

lol, wohoo God!

[Muscleduck]

Amen to that ;-)

Love the movie :)

[TobiasRieper47]

Epic Lulz!

"God, you really fucked up on this one!"

[freighttrain777]

lol, I'm Agnostic myself, but this guy is awesome!

[bikini1212]

humans were genetically engineered... time to find out where you are from

[2hughgrections]

banana bad example, maybe. but drop this guy off on an island with nuthing but "prickly pineapples and impenetrable coconuts" 2 eat and dont think he would be so argumentative. on the other hand he d probly just chip his teeth on the coconut stick tha banana up his ass and drink seawater. fuckin idiot. the hawaiian guy didnt seem 2 b having a hard time.

[BulletBoy1951]

If you are going to insult someone in english please learn to spell.

[tohobbes]

don't forget watermelons!

[someweirdgayguy]

Plantains! Those are poisonous until cooked too.

Certainly a testament to either 1) common desent or 2) and all spiteful, loathsome god, with a cruel sense of humor.

[colibri1]

Pineapples are also originally from South America, so the writers of the Bible had no knowledge of them either. Why didn't you make all foods available at all places and in all times to all people, God, huh? You paragon of perfection, you.

[lerox22]

have you ever asked a preist "do retards go to heven even though they cant repent for their sins cause they cant and most of them talk?".and "why cant animals go to heven arent they gods creation too?" if you ask thease questions you will be entertained for hours. try it it works.

[Blargsix]

"obviously not a well made banana, sorry god"

XD

[kornrocks999]

You know the banana was just a joke right-ray said so

[websnarf]

But I didn't notice anyone laughing when Ray was talking about it. It only seems funny when Nick and other atheists talk about it.

Interesting that. So what about the whole "croco-duck" thing? That one seems to be just self-mockery.

Are saying Ray and Kurt are intentionally trying to make belief in god seem foolish, and that they are really just atheists in disguise?

[Panamango]

"god, you really fucked up on this one". epic lulz.

[mike13y]

because god only like you to eat banana. I think if you believe in god and when you go to haven there are only bananas to eat.

[brucesterman]

"THIS SEASON I'UL BE MOSTLY EATING BANANAS"

Superb.

PS Put your autoque a bit higher up

[marknachos]

mr. nick gisburne.. you sir have got to be the most intelligent being on the face of this earth. would god create such a smart human that he knew would be against him? i think not

[KevinCanada87]

What religion has taught me : God is horny, so are priests.

[the9milethug]

bah-nah-nah

[KevinCanada87]

bah-nah-nahs ...

This shit is Bah-nah-nahs B-a-h-n-a-h-n-a-h-s

That would have been a much better version of the song I think.

[shuxian03]

-_-

[chromium77]

nick gisburne is very english.

[johnirishhere]

good on you nick.

[LittleKorean]

Lame. This guy is trying too hard and doesn't really say anything. "Oh, no! This banana has slipped out of my hand 'cos I'm too much of a retard to hold it properly! That refutes God alright."

[GerardBlaize]

but how does the bannana prove gods existance in the first place?? THATS the point!

[shuxian03]

I didn't finish the video. He's so shittish.

[BenjaminBattington]

Well what have you to say about the pineapple part, hmm?

[UcanbeGOD]

you didnt watch the video did you?

[nikklev]

hahaha 1 to 0 for christian in possitive thinking haha

[SuperCelloMan]

By the way.. your thinking the Kiwi that one (supposedly) is a cross between two fruits.. a strawberry and a banana...

[ThomasTheorem]

Just because he used a banana created by the devil to temptate those sinners like him

[ANDRE7MONK]

the only devil is your filthy, aweful, animal-killing religion you piece of shit. even my shit is superior to the religious. no hate against hinduism. im cool with it but fuck islam christianity and so on

[slowframe]

so cool XD

[RayAtheist]

I miss nick....he was so entertaining and clever.

[Artfirms]

LOL "god u really fucked up on this one" hahaha awesome!

[madmaoriuk]

I thought bananas were an early example of genetic engineering anyway. Isn't it true that the banana is a cross breed between two different fruits? I can't help thinking though that Gisburne will never catch Robin Hood this way.

[NorthernStorm8]

No madmaoriuk, bananas are not a cross breed between two fruits and they are not an example of genetic engineering.

Perhaps you should actually check your facts before posting?

[AthmanUk]

Lmao this is brilliant, had me laughing! I hope ray n kirk get to see this.

[putittogether]

My holy book teaches that all non-believers in the flying spaghetti monster must be roasted alive, and there children but be eaten alive. I know its it the true word of god becuase my holy book says so.

[jimthehappymonkey1]

RAmen

[Anghellik9]

the glying spaghetti monster said no such thing. He doesn't care if many people don't believe in him, because he's not that naive.

[csatimaci]

He is great until he starts sounding like Oolon Colluphid should

[Lepa2793]

OMG! I LOVE THIS!!!!!

[SRadders]

Haha - fantastic! Absolutely Brilliant! :-D

[hugoforth]

vintgcars....my spelling ha ha ha, i suggest you look at your post.

[vintgcars]

My only spelling "error" was the use of the colloquialism "Ya", which is roughly similar to the Y'all used in the south. Your spelling and punctuation was well below high school standards

[Rediahs]

Er, um, what are you talking about? vigntcars's post was nearly flawless gramatically, while yours was nearly unreadable.

[napaporn37]

Idiotic analogies on all accounts. How long did it take you to come up with this ridiculous concept?

[hugoforth]

YGMYPAY & RAZORBLADEMASK...Who pulled your chains.

[razorblademask]

This guy is goofy XD

[hugoforth]

LaraAvara..As i said...typical woman, i never said i believe in ghosts, and i never criticised Gisburne, but its obvious to me that you have tunnel vision,so i will not continue with this.

[ygmypay]

Not that I agree with your assessment, but I'd rather be a "typical woman" than a typical arse.

[vintgcars]

Ya know Hugo, the little lady is right on regarding your post - clear as mud. This man doesn't get your point either. Elucidate, learn how to spell, and quit with the sweeping generalizations about gender. You reflect poorly on your gender.

[hugoforth]

LaraAvara...you missed the point,.....typical woman.

[LaraAvara]

It's no surprise that women miss your points given your poor verbal skills and muddled logic.

[LaraAvara]

So Hugo, what was your point? Your post flits from a belief in ghosts to criticizing Gisburne for cherry-picking a source on the origins of potatoes that meets some preconcieved notion. Meanwhile, you're "taking the easy way out" by failing to do some basic fact checking to see if he's right, which he is.

[hugoforth]

LaraAvara........Are you talking to me, ?

[LaraAvara]

yep

[dmots42]

Even as an atheist, i thought this was a shit video until the pineapple. But now its now on my favorites lol. And yeah, thanks god for the sulfuric acid in my eyes lol. Awesome

[hugoforth]

People do not generally believe in certain things unless they experience it themselves, i,e, ghosts etc,so they make the mistake of dismissing it because its not pheasable to them, its called "taking the easy way out ". The bible is a history book so why does this chap believe that the potatoe was brought to our countries from somewhere else etc, etc,...he chooses to believe the history book that contained that information, because its more acceptible to him.

[LaraAvara]

Huh? Show me a reputable source showing potatoes originated anywhere other than South America. The biogeography of our food crops is well understood. You have no idea what you are talking about - hey! you must be a creationist!

[timleebee]

Very good

[urantivirus]

that was pretty funny. Hey, and I'm allergic to bananas and nothing else. God is personally trying to kill me. lol

[UniversalAtheist]

Nick is great

[lemonman456]

god really did fuck up on the pineapple

[pirategrammaman]

The only thing you have is that the ridges are backwards.

[mS28811]

you retarded? look at larfilms video about it debunking the banana being gods creation.

[Dalbert342]

Why the hell did Nick get banned for?

[websnarf]

He uploaded a video pointing out the nasty nature of the Qu'ran by simply directly quoting it. It had a tiny bit of copyrighted infringing music at the end that they used as an excuse to kick him off.

[Dalbert342]

That blows,I love his videos

[wolfiegirlrox]

legend!

[BPMead007]

Hahaha that's great man.

[Foamzyyyy]

Rofl. Silly Christians & their biased banana theory.

[mediyeti]

god was fucking stoned when made a pineapple lol!

weed does that to ya. i heard he rolls his own.

go listen to weird al yankovich parody song= 'what if god smoked canabis'

but yeah well done nick. had a nice laugh.
