If god made everything, Then he is a dumbass... Sense everythin evolved, and God isn't real, I think the argument is done

[sidewaysfcs0718]

what miracles? all i see is polution, suffering, war, genocide, hunger ....

if your god did exist i would kill myself to tell him in the afterlife how much of a fucking asshole he is.

however he doesnt. and thank god for that :D*thats a little word play for u retards who didnt get it)

[blindedby2monkeys]

even god himself would admit hes an atheist after seeing this video

@Texas3Step Apparently being flat and camouflaging like that was an advantage over having only one usable eye.

@nageljeuk

I lolled hard at your post man! xD.

@Texas3Step You have a good point, but also think about this: the skull of the flatfish is very distorted, as Richard pointed out. It is a very inefficient design, something that you would not expect to see if the creator is intelligent as what everyone claims. This indicates evolution is true. If you argue that "well perhaps the creator made a mistake", then fine, i'll accept that. But the problem is every1 is claiming the creator is intelligent and makes no mistakes.

[nageljeuk]

Oh I dunno, I think a creator who comes with retarded logic like 'Yeah, a dick up your arse feels good, but doing it is a sin' would be silly enough to create stuff like that.

I think God was just the original troll who's laughing hard at people following his silly rules no matter how contradicting they seem.

[Texas3Step]

How does he know that the flounder's ancestors laid down on their sides? And why did they stay down after they got sand in their lower eye? At the alleged lengthy rates of evolution, it would have taken hundreds of generations of flatfish being willing to lie with one eye in the sand before their descendants with the newly located eye emerged. But if having only one good eye was a hunting and security disadvantage, it be more likely that they die out before evolving. Hmmm...

[Quintinohthree]

He should have shown some of the transitional fossils too. It would have clown the minds of the creationists.

[TheyAreHere2]

Or it could be an in-correction in behavior just as easily. And does distorted really mean evolution? Consider the fact that the twisting in eye increased the strength of the skull. Or that it had no reason to lie on it's side and if it did it was a behavioral issue and being so would make evolution useless in that situation.

@Trouterr I know that, but you are giving credit for it to god which I don't think can possibly be true.

@MunkyDrag0n i am not argueing against evolution..
