The fools! They have no idea that we ARE an underwater colony. Now is the time to strike. Deploy the torpedo sharks!

[agadgsgdfgsasadsfdg]

LOL I am from Australia, yes it exists

[vihannes3]

australia is a fucking conspiracy, don't believe in the damn scientist, they're lying!

Humans are fallible. We know that , so we check things often. If we keep getting the same answer we can be fairly confidant that it is correct. In science many people will check for mistakes, so the same answer from many different people is even better.

I always use the 'Do You Believe in Germany?' argument when I debate fucktard fundies.

@TheNarcMan Sharks with FRICKIN LASERS on their heads!

This guy thinks that because humans are fallible that means we can doubt what science says. Well by that same argument since we are fallible how can we assess God?

@sepirocth You want us to "look up eclesiastes 8:17". Well may I suggest that you look up " Conservation of angular momentum". That pretty much explains why the planets do what they do. No deity needed.

[coolgreyoneabby]

@sepirocth No, There is no evidence that God created Gravity. Also, magnets attract too, but that is not the creation of energy. A force is not the source of energy. Magnets can attract, but it takes energy to pull them apart, not put them together. Two magnets coming together or two planets coming together end up in a lower level of energy, not higher.

@sepirocth Hehe! You can pretend all you like, but Jupiter is what it is, hydrogen and helium. Jupiter doesn't have little furry ears and a tiny nose and big blue eyes and yawns when it wakes up each day! You are delusional! You probably think that Jupiter would talk to you! Perhaps your god lives there? Full of hot air!

[sepirocth]

@storekeeper80 well he created gravity, so his creation is what controls the planets,i mean scientist say energy cannot be created, so the energy for gravity to move the planets and keep everythin in place here on earth must come from somewhere right? but it couldnt be created because energy cannot be created, clearly proves what it says in the bible in Romans 1:22

[sepirocth]

@storekeeper80 haha i will pretend u did not say jupiter which has like hundreds of time the mass of planet earth is supposedly a ball of gas, anyway moving on haha that was a good one btw, craig didnt create life, he changed the behavior of an organic cell, he didnt create any cell, he changes the output so they act the way he wants.
