i thought miracles were only divine interventions that happened once?the parting of the red sea,the immaculate conception....a woman getting knocked up?
So this (really cute-looking, damnit!) priest is in Europe. A continent on which many countries already have an atheist majority up to more than 80%. And tells the Fox creatard that atheism is just a trend in literature? XD
I find it funny that during the Fox clips you see muslim praying in the background and Fox routinely talk about muslims in a negative light. Hmm, makes you wonder
"90% of Americans believe in gawd!". So the 10% who are left are a threat to the vast majority's religion, and, who by the way, have a bodyguard called the CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE? Would that explain the power that arcs from my fingertips as I maniacally destroy xmas creches and run around holding apart the hands of those who would pray?
hilarious! I love this commentary. father jonathan got owned. I do think it ironic that they pick a church figure to talk about atheism as if he is somebody that would know anything about it. Why not talk to an actual atheist? Why then faux news would just be doing honest journalism and that would just not be fox news.
@Letitallfuckingburn Also, you have to consider this: all the books of the Bible were written by humans, through instruction of God. Do you think God would have them write a bunch of words/terms (referring to emotions) that we don't understand?
It is up to you whether you believe in God or not, but is there a religious book older than the Old Testament that describes events that actually happened and foretells the coming of one that was believed to be the son of God?
@rev101ben rigveda of Hinduism 1700-1100 BCE. Would you count egyptian hieroglyphs becuse your jesus doesn't seem, to be the only god on the block born from a virgin. O and while we are on the old testament do you really think we sould be getting our morals from a genocidal god (if it is real). But hey if following this thing you call a god makes you feel better then i wish you the best what ever helps you sleep at night.
@Letitallfuckingburn Let's throw out every religion that hasn't withstood the test of time thus far. What other religion has predicted this virgin birth thousands of years prior?
It was already determined that the Noah's ark theory is feasible, since we have proof that there was a catastrophic flood that wiped out most of the Earth. In the Bible, God says He'll never destroy the Earth again until His return, and hasn't so far. Genocide? They were warned, but very few listened.
@rev101ben virgin birth of which god Horus,Krishna,Dionysus,Buddha,Danae, Melanippe,Auge,Antiope or jesus? The funny thing is all of the gods i listed belong to older religions except the last one. Most the land we stand on was at one time a sea floor why do you think we find fossils of sea creatures that lived millions of years ago on top of mountains. exaple: Liopleurodon. You(god) can't justify genocide by saying people didn't listen to you(god). You have a very bloodthirsty god
@Letitallfuckingburn I don't know man, I don't know. I'm just an "amateur" Christian. I believe in God, you can believe in whatever god you want, or none for that matter. I'm gonna go ahead and give up now. Have a nice day :)
@C0ct0pusPrime You should start by reading the apologetics version of the Bible. It will explain a lot of the things that don't make sense to you. It's small wonder that a religion that has been around for thousands of years has become easier to disbelieve.
Wouldn't it make more sense to try to prove a "theory" that will potentially send you to hell, than to waste time disproving it. I mean... if you're wrong, you only have eternity to pay for it.
@rev101ben "You should start by reading the apologetics version of the Bible. It will explain a lot of the things that don't make sense to you."
i read the original word of the supposed christian god, i don't need to read a book that is nothing more than a bunch of excuses for the immorality and contradictions contained within it.
"if you're wrong, you only have eternity to pay for it."
why is it that i know more about your arguments than you do? pascals wager: google why its bs.
@C0ct0pusPrime So far, I see just that- arguing, with nothing to back it up. And the Bible was written by men thousands of years ago. Do you really think you're supposed to read it once and comprehend it fully? People spend their entire lives making sense of it.
Name one contradiction. If I can't explain it, I'll quit commenting.
@rev101ben "Do you really think you're supposed to read it once and comprehend it fully? People spend their entire lives making sense of it."
you would think god would make it somewhat easy to understand & follow, wouldn't you? & people waste their lives worrying about a lot of holy text, that only proves that people waste their time.
1st result when 'biblical contradictions' is googled (read 1st paragraph)
@C0ct0pusPrime You would think... if God were human. God doesn't have a fallible brain like us, therefore we can't expect to make sense of His intentions.
Pick one of the instances in that paragraph. There are enough there to keep me busy for a week... and when you were reading the Bible, as you claim to have done, did you actually come across any of these contradictions, or did you just read that somebody else did and decided to believe them?
@rev101ben "God doesn't have a fallible brain like us, therefore we can't expect to make sense of His intentions."
so god made us with fallible brains and then gave us an extremely long, confusing, and contradictory holy text for us to interpret for ourselves? and if we interpret wrong, disagree, or study it enough to see where it doesn't seem to make sense or be very moral, we get eternal punishment? still not the kind of god i would worship, even if his existence were proven.
@C0ct0pusPrime God made us so that we can think and make decisions for ourselves. How interesting would the world be if everyone had infallible brains? Everything would be the same. What I believe (and this is how I make sense of it) is that at some point in our lives we develop a conscience. The more you read the Bible, the more your conscience develops. When you start to betray your conscience is when you blatantly commit "sin".
@rev101ben "at some point in our lives we develop a conscience. The more you read the Bible, the more your conscience develops."
i absolutely disagree. when i was christian (raised catholic, confirmed & everything), i could get away with 'sinning' (i'd rather call it behavior that hurts others) as long as i repented for it later. when i realized how silly religion really is (all, not just christianity) & became an atheist, i had to take actual, full responsibility for my actions.
@C0ct0pusPrime Which is why I've always been opposed to the Catholic way of thinking. If there is no God, I see no reason in having a conscience. What purpose would evolution have to make a man feel guilty after committing what would essentially be a "sin", some of which don't hurt others?
@rev101ben why do humans sare 98% of of the same DNA with a monkey (answers.yahoo.com). Why does the bible say the earth is 6000 years old yet it was proven by radiometric dating to be over 4 billion years old. I can go on but i only have so much space. please explain if you can
@Letitallfuckingburn Haha. I'll save this one for another day. I will pose a counter-question to the monkey theory- If we evolved from monkeys, then why are there still monkeys? Also, have you done any searching for these answers? I found several like this just browsing google. Just gotta weed out the ridiculous sounding ones...

@Letitallfuckingburn I do too. That's not my reason, but I guess it all depends on who you are. I believe not only because I've found nothing to disprove the Bible, but also because I get a certain "soundness" from praying. I feel relieved when I pray for forgiveness. I honestly believe that we have a conscience for a reason. Why would something that evolved from an amoeba have a conscience? That makes not sense to me.
@rev101ben if your god is turly omnipotent then if the book that is his only proof of even being real is wrong one time then how can it(god) be omnipotent. But the funny thing to me is how many human emotions your god has it just reminds me of how the greeks humanise there gods. I think we can agree the greek gods are not real but what makes your god any different
@Letitallfuckingburn As I've said, the "book" quotation marks because it is comprised of many books) is not wrong, it has just been interpreted over thousands of years. The original version was right.
Yes, God has human emotions. We were made in his likeness, so in a sense, you could say we have God's emotions. Who is to say he doesn't have other emotions? This, however, doesn't mean that he has human logic.
@rev101ben well then your "book" was wrong about the age of earth so please interpret that the way i look at it is how come your "god" didn't know the age of something it made. As you pointed out its(bible) been interpreted over thousands of years how can you say the original version was right when you have never seen the original. made in his likeness so we are godlike then huh lol no we godlike becuse we made this "god" in our likeness.
@Letitallfuckingburn Who says it's wrong about the age of Earth? Scientists? They are constantly proving themselves wrong. The whole radiocarbon dating ended up proving that the Earth is much younger than they originally thought.
I'm going by what the Bible says when I say we are "made in His likeness". I have no personal resources that God has given me, so I have to go by an ancient book. If you won't consider that, then the point can't be argued.
@bgiv2010 Not only that, but Noahs Ark was stolen from the Sumerians. Learned this just recently myself. I believe its on the 7th tablet of the Epic of Gilgamesh.
Atheism isn't a fad it's been around since the dawn of speculative human thought. Not every human being was so easily duped into swallowing the religious nonsense of their time. Atheism is much older than religion as a matter of fact!
I agree with everything you say, but you gotta stop watching Fox News. They don't call high blood pressure the silent killer for nothing. Also, much like Teletubbies, the target audience is within a different range of analytical ability than you.
Concousness and God are the same thing. God created the universe by thinking the universe into existence and as a result, the universe responds to thought. Read the book the Secret!
90% of Americans believe in God. 10% of Americans are atheists. (That makes 100%!) Really Fox News? I guess there are no agnostics, muslims, budists and so on in America.....
@Pirikato94 Muslims also believe in god, and Buddhists aren't forced into one option. Atheism simply means 'Without Theism'. If you aren't a theist, you are an atheist. Agnostics count as Atheists, technically.
@Pirikato94 also i believe they did a common thing in marketing, they lumped everyone who believes in a higher power together, so jews, muslims, chirstians, pantheon believers, etc etc.
Wow... What Fox did there made as much sense as asking Lary the cable guy (Blue Collar Comedian) about astrophysics and what his opinion is on quantum entanglement.
I seriously hate when theists always say that were the bad ones ones cause were pushing our beliefs hell just the other day my friend called me "a radical atheist" because I told her I was upset that I missed the 2011 american atheist convention. Like Don't ask Don't tell most theist seem to think that we should shut up and let them live there delusional lives -.-
Father Mainstream McGentlevoice had to start of by saying he's not the priest that got arrested as a joke, but given the reasons for priests being arrested lately, you'll excuse me for my lack of chortle, Douche bag. He then claims he bought Books by the four horsemen, but clearly didn't read them. Thanks to the padre's vow of poverty, that means he spent his parishioners money on god is not great, I love it. Now I am laughing.
I like to credit christians with having at least some common sense. They use it to cherry pick the parts of the bible to ignore.
It is ironic that if they didn't have any common sense or real, evolutionary morality, they would be stoning their children to death for disobeying them and doing all the other crazy shit that christians are supposed to do according to their so-called morals.
@MrWagman11 They'd just get Silverman because he comes of as smug and abrasive.I think it would be a good ratings grabber if they had the God smackdown and got Rick Warren and Fr. Mainstream McGentlevoice here to debate Sam Harris and Michael Shermer. But alas, there would not be enough shouting and talking past one another to ever be aired on Fox.
@AdUtrumquePeratus76 Fox News would not dare have Harris and Shermer debate Warren and Fr. McGentlevoice. Harris and Shermer would obliterate and embarrass them.
@bren97122 that's not really true... stupid people are always going to find an excuse to hate each other, stupid people tend to be highly religious, so naturally they use religion as a reason to hate one another.
Its not a fad, its Americans waking up to the fact that they have been fed bullshit for all their lives and see all the hypocrisy and idiocy these republicans and religious people display in general.
I worship fox news. I've transformed my toilet into a Shrine. I've convinced myself that my Shit is my soul. I'll spare you the extensive list of details. In short, every morning I surrender my soul unto fox news. My ultimate goal is to see everyone at fox buried and suffocated under a mountain of my excrement. Have a Great Day.
I don't remember "atheist fundamentalists" destroying abortion clinics or pulverizing the Twin Towers. Religious fundamentalists, on the other hand, excel at these.
"With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion."
@Elvishairdude89 What other atheists say is not my problem. It's not a church. We all do not believe in god/s, that's it. But you missed my point anyway.
Love it! Facts are too difficult for the tiny minds of the religiously obsessed. They believe in Santa Claus and want to force their puerile beliefs onto everyone. They're terrified of Science too. When men like Stephen Hawking come out and states "theology is unnecessary," they go Batshit crazy. religious Kooks are the most emotionally needy, twisted and cowardly dopes alive, they're embarrassing. Thank goodness Our country is based on Secularism, not religious dogma. See ya around Prime ...
Well the priest could have been an atheist, or studied us. Most likely it's because fox news wanted someone to build a straw man so they would be able to win. We all know that if someone is successful and is of a religion, then it's god's blessing, if not they had to give up some to satan.
Everyone, look up Ralp Ellis' genious theory about the origin of the jewish religion. You find it on Youtube or google it. It says the jews were never slaves or victims of the pharao, but the ruling class of egypt themselves. Furthermore he states, that the old testament was the anals of the pharaos, written history, with other words. This truely gives a different perspective of the so called victim role of the jews throughout history. Also look up the jewish role in slave trade.
Father Jonathan should stick to commenting on something he knows a lot about like fondling little boys genitalia and shut up about shit he know nothing about. What a liar and sell out he. I wonder how FOX picked him to be the spokesman for all of catholicism. In Rome they believe in evolution. They have some intelligence at the Vatican. Where did they get this tool?
It is so stupid for a Christian Priest to explain to others what an Atheist is. They are better off finding an actor to pretend being an Atheist and say bad things about it. Like they done before along with Pagans, Wiccans, and Gays. I do believe that is what is called a "False Flag".
"We need to keep those scientists within their field." Then, why don't they? These are the people who bring up cosmology when talking to evolutionary biologists. They bring up abiogenesis when talking to specialists in physical cosmology. If they could keep scientists within their field, it would be a hell of a lot easier to hold rational discussions with them.
@ph03n1xamb1t i love when people leave comments that ignore the points made in the video and instead try to give my fashion advice or their opinion of my decorating style.
tell me, is there a way i could have decorated that would have made you address the points and not the background?
@C0ct0pusPrime sir, never let people like that make you take spiderman down. spiderman will always be relevant. and i have a pulp fiction poster too, that was a great fucking movie. and a guitar? my room sucks. shut the fuck up ph01n1xamb1t.
@C0ct0pusPrime LOL. maybe he was expecting a big crucifix, a pulpit and some pornographic stain glass windows in the background.... hold on, I think the last one does not quite belong.
@C0ct0pusPrime Dude, thanks for posting this. These people are so stupid, talking about atheism is a fad. Really?, An idealogy that's been around for thousands of years a fad? As u said fucktards!
This is almost freaking hilarious...almost. If a couple books nowadays based on logic and reasonable deduction are "fads", what the fuck is the bible?
The growing number of cognitively skilled, educated people is clearly a trend. This nonsense will soon pass and these lost souls will find that the virtuous ignorance that Christianity offers is far better than being highly educated and intelligent. It is against gods will to question faith.
Atheists posturing as intellectuals? Isn't it more that most intellectuals happen to be Atheists? Among academia, especially among the natural sciences, Atheism is widespread.
ALTHOUGH I'M A CONSERVATIVE CHRISTIAN (Baptist), I no longer believe that the Bible teaches eternal torment or suffering. The Bible teaches eternal punishment, but it's not eternal torment. In my popular Internet article, TRADITIONAL DOCTRINE OF HELL EVOLVED FROM GREEK ROOTS, I explain how and why teaching of eternal torment entered early into Christianity and how Scriptures have been misinterpreted and taken out of context to support that teaching. ~Babu G. Ranganathan (B.A. theology/biology)
SCIENCE SHOWS THAT THE UNIVERSE could not have sustained itself eternally because of entropy (even in an open system). Einstein confirmed that space, matter, and time had a beginning! That beginning had to be supernatural because natural laws have no ability to bring the universe into existence from nothing. The supernatural cannot be proved by science but science points to a supernatural intelligence for the origin and order of the universe ~ HOW FORENSIC SCIENCE REFUTES ATHEISM (Article)
EINSTEIN CONFIRMED that space and time are just as physical as matter. That's why space and time can be altered by gravity, and space produces particles. Einstein's equations show that the universe couldn’t be eternal. It had a beginning. Einstein believed, because of science, in the existence of God behind the origin and order of the universe. He didn't believe in a personal God like Christians do, but he did believe science pointed to the existence of an all powerful and intelligent Creator
THE SCIENTIFIC CASE AGAINST ATHEISM: Please read this Internet article of mine published in Russia's English Pravda. It will be a real eye-opener for all who think belief in a Creator is merely subjective blind faith. Also read my article, LIFE ON MARS NO SURPRISE (In the Earth's past there was powerful volcanic activity which spewed life-containing dirt and rocks (meteors) into outer space. Mars may literally have millions of tons of Earth soil)
NATURAL LIMITS TO EVOLUTION: Only evolution within "kinds" is genetically possible (i.e. varieties of dogs, cats, etc.), but not evolution across "kinds" (i.e. from worm to human). How were species living and reproducing if their vital structures, organs, reproductive systems hadn't evolved yet? Read my Pravda Internet article: WAR AMONG EVOLUTIONISTS! I discuss: Punctuated Equilibrium, "Junk DNA," genetics, mutations, natural selection, fossils, genetic/biological similarities between species
DAWKINS, HITCHENS, AND HAWKING REFUSE TO DEBATE with creationists who are SCIENTISTS, such as the scientists at The Institute for Creation Research. Dawkins and his friends only debate non-scientist creationists. Read articles by scientists supporting creation at The Institute for Creation Research site. Read analysis from creation scientists about the latest news on fossils, genetics, astronomy, etc. that you won't read in the main stream media. Visit the Institute for Creation Research site.
EXPLAINING HOW AN AIRPLANE WORKS doesn't mean no one made the airplane. Explaining how life and the universe works don’t mean there was no Maker behind them. Natural laws explain how the order in the universe works, but mere undirected natural laws can't explain the origin of that order. Once you have a complete and living cell, the genetic code/mechanisms exist to direct the formation of more cells, but how did the cell originate when no directing code or mechanisms existed in nature?
WHAT IS SCIENCE? Science simply is knowledge based on observation. No one observed the universe coming by chance or by design, by creation or by macro-evolution. These are positions of faith. The issue is which faith the scientific evidence best supports. Natural laws can explain how an airplane or a cell works, but it's irrational to believe that mere undirected natural laws can bring about either. Read my Internet article: HOW FORENSIC SCIENCE REFUTES ATHEISM
SCIENTISTS HAVE NEVER CREATED LIFE. And, even if they do it won't be by chance but by intelligent design. By genetically engineering already existing forms of life, scientists have produced new forms of life, but they did not produce these new life forms from non-living matter. Even in synthetic life, scientists design and build DNA from scratch, through intelligent design, and then insert their man-made DNA into an already living cell. Read my article: HOW FORENSIC SCIENCE REFUTES ATHEISM
THE ODDS of the sequence of molecules in a cell coming together by chance are similar to the odds of magnetic letters randomly bonding together in a sequence to form all the words and sentences in a dictionary. Without the right sequence, a cell's molecules won't work. Amino acids can come by chance but not proteins. Without DNA there can be no proteins and vice versa. Gradually won't do. It's all at once or not at all for a cell's survival. Read my article: HOW FORENSIC SCIENCE REFUTES ATHEISM
NATURAL SELECTION DOESN'T PRODUCE ANYTHING. It can only "select" from what is produced that has survival value. If a variation occurs that helps a species survive, that survival is called being "selected." That's all it is. There's no conscious selection by nature. It's a passive process. Natural selection is a figure of speech. The term itself is a tautology. Natural selection only operates once there is life and reproduction, not before. Read my article: HOW FORENSIC SCIENCE REFUTES ATHEISM.
NATURAL SELECTION IS NO BLIND WATCHMAKER because it can only "select," not produce or arrange. If a variation survives, that's called being "selected." Natural selection operates only once there is life and reproduction, not before, so it couldn't have been involved in life's origins. A partially-evolved cell (an oxymoron) would quickly disintegrate. It couldn't wait ("survive") millions of years for chance to complete it and then make it alive! Read: HOW FORENSIC SCIENCE REFUTES ATHEISM
ARE FOSSILS REALLY MILLIONS OF YEARS OLD? Popular Internet article examines assumptions concerning fossil deposition as well as built-in assumptions involved in modern radiometric dating (not used for dating fossils but other rocks), and arguments from starlight and time. Discusses lack of true transitional forms in the fossil record and lack of "age" sequence of the fossil layers. Discussion of mixed species (i.e. dinosaur, reptile, mammal fossils in the same stratum).
IMAGINE A FISH WITH PART FINS, part feet with the fins evolving (transitioning) into feet. What survival benefit would there be? The fish couldn't use its fins or its feet, and there are no fossils showing such a creature ever existed. They only exist on automobile bumper stickers! There are no true transitional forms, either living or fossilized. Evolutionists realize this fact! Read my Internet article: WAR AMONG EVOLUTIONISTS!
APES ARE QUITE COMFORTABLE IN HOW THEY WALK, just as humans are quite comfortable in how they walk. Even a slight change in the position of a muscle or bone, for either, would be excruciatingly painful and would not be an advantage for survival. There's no hard evidence that humans evolved from ape-like creatures anymore than there's hard evidence that apes evolved from four-legged-pawed dog-like creatures. Read Internet article: MISSING LINKS THAT NEVER WERE.

GENETIC INFORMATION CANNOT HAPPEN BY CHANCE, so it's more logical to believe that genetic similarities between all forms of life are due to a common Designer who designed similar functions for similar purposes. It doesn't mean all forms of life are biologically related! Also, "Junk DNA" isn't junk. These non-coding segments of DNA have recently been found to be vital in regulating gene expression. Read my popular Internet article: HOW FORENSIC SCIENCE REFUTES ATHEISM
ALL REAL EVOLUTION ( i.e. varieties of dogs, cats, etc.) in nature is the expression, over time, of already existing genes. Evolution is possible only if there’s information (genes) directing it. Only variations of already existing genes are possible, which means only limited evolution and adaptations are possible. Nature has no ability to invent new genes via random mutations caused by random environmental forces. That’s evolutionary faith, not science. Read my article, WAR AMONG EVOLUTIONISTS!
DO EYES CARRY SCARS OF EVOLUTION? Read this fantastic Internet article by biologist and creationist Brian Thomas. Thomas refutes every argument of a "flawed" design for the eye, and explains how and why the so-called flaw is actually the best thing for the eye. Read the article! It's amazing what facts evolutionists will ignore. Numerous times evolutionists have been proven wrong about their interpretation of a structure as being flawed or useless.

you would think god would make it somewhat easy to understand & follow, wouldn't you? & people waste their lives worrying about a lot of holy text, that only proves that people waste their time.

@C0ct0pusPrime You would think... if God were human. God doesn't have a fallible brain like us, therefore we can't expect to make sense of His intentions.
Pick one of the instances in that paragraph. There are enough there to keep me busy for a week... and when you were reading the Bible, as you claim to have done, did you actually come across any of these contradictions, or did you just read that somebody else did and decided to believe them?

@rev101ben "God doesn't have a fallible brain like us, therefore we can't expect to make sense of His intentions."
so god made us with fallible brains and then gave us an extremely long, confusing, and contradictory holy text for us to interpret for ourselves? and if we interpret wrong, disagree, or study it enough to see where it doesn't seem to make sense or be very moral, we get eternal punishment? still not the kind of god i would worship, even if his existence were proven.

@C0ct0pusPrime God made us so that we can think and make decisions for ourselves. How interesting would the world be if everyone had infallible brains? Everything would be the same. What I believe (and this is how I make sense of it) is that at some point in our lives we develop a conscience. The more you read the Bible, the more your conscience develops. When you start to betray your conscience is when you blatantly commit "sin".

@rev101ben "at some point in our lives we develop a conscience. The more you read the Bible, the more your conscience develops."
i absolutely disagree. when i was christian (raised catholic, confirmed & everything), i could get away with 'sinning' (i'd rather call it behavior that hurts others) as long as i repented for it later. when i realized how silly religion really is (all, not just christianity) & became an atheist, i had to take actual, full responsibility for my actions.

@C0ct0pusPrime Which is why I've always been opposed to the Catholic way of thinking. If there is no God, I see no reason in having a conscience. What purpose would evolution have to make a man feel guilty after committing what would essentially be a "sin", some of which don't hurt others?

There's no hard evidence that humans evolved from ape-like creatures anymore than there's hard evidence that apes evolved from four-legged-pawed dog-like creatures.

GENETIC INFORMATION CANNOT HAPPEN BY CHANCE, so it's more logical to believe that genetic similarities between all forms of life are due to a common Designer who designed similar functions for similar purposes. It doesn't mean all forms of life are biologically related! Also, "Junk DNA" isn't junk. These non-coding segments of DNA have recently been found to be vital in regulating gene expression.

ALL REAL EVOLUTION ( i.e. varieties of dogs, cats, etc.) in nature is the expression, over time, of already existing genes. Evolution is possible only if there’s information (genes) directing it. Only variations of already existing genes are possible, which means only limited evolution and adaptations are possible. Nature has no ability to invent new genes via random mutations caused by random environmental forces. That’s evolutionary faith, not science. Read my article, WAR AMONG EVOLUTIONISTS!

DO EYES CARRY SCARS OF EVOLUTION? Read this fantastic Internet article by biologist and creationist Brian Thomas. Thomas refutes every argument of a "flawed" design for the eye, and explains how and why the so-called flaw is actually the best thing for the eye. Read the article! It's amazing what facts evolutionists will ignore. Numerous times evolutionists have been proven wrong about their interpretation of a structure as being flawed or useless.
