Part of a superb series of videos exposing the funny stupidity of creationists and why they deserve to be laughed at. In each case the creationist statements are shown to be outrageously stupid by even the most rudimentary knowledge of science.

In this episode it is shown how venomfangx is revisited to demonstrate to creationists that just because you can read something off the web, that doesn't make it true, or make a good substitute for an education. What is even more surprising is that anyone could find the materials of venomfangx convincing. It's a shocking example of how vulnerable the uneducated are to the wiles of a confident adolescent who they wish to be telling them the truth.
The abysmal understanding of venomfangx of radiometric dating is highlighted (Ive left 14C out of this). Some of his statements are appallingly poorly thought through. Notably his statement that decay rates of nuclear isotopes are not constant and can be accelerated by a factor of a billion. If this were true, there would be no problem with long term radioactive waste storage as we could 'de- radioactify' it in seconds to weeks. The willingness of venomfangx to use his lack of understanding of radioisotope dating to 'prove' its wrong is also highlighted. For instance his idea that radiometric dating doesn't work on open systems is as stupid as saying watches cant be used to keep time, unless they have batteries in them.

You know what quote i fucking hate... " RESEARCH THAT WE ARE NOT SHOWING YOU BECAUSE IT PROBABLY DOES NOT EXIST SHOWS!"

@stiimuli He believed in God and yet he did this. The theistic claim to morality destroyed before our very eyes. I feel bad about this whole thing, though.

[stiimuli]

@aaqucnaona94 insanity.

from what I understand (and I may be wrong) it came down to a personal disagreement over a woman's place in society and "sexual tension" between the two of them.

[aaqucnaona94]

@stiimuli I saw an shorter version of that video. I didn't get what his motivation was, though.

[stiimuli]

@aaqucnaona94 you can see video of the news story in the sidebar videos over there----->

check the video titled "youtuber murder / suicide: the tragedy of Asia McGowan and Anthony Powell (tony48219)"

[aaqucnaona94]

@MonTag666 Really? Is there some news story or something about this?

[GrandmasterBBC]

@stiimuli I'm on it. Nothing brings me greater pleasure than to watch that little douchenozzle get what's coming to him. Thanks!

[stiimuli]

@GrandmasterBBC not to worry, Thunderf00t and others have been buisy pwning him in videos since he got back.

One of the best highlights was when VFX actually went on the Magic Sandwitch show a few months ago and was thoroughly grilled by Tf00t, AronRa and DPRjones for 2 hours.

I would highly recommend checking that out =)

[GrandmasterBBC]

@stiimuli Oh hell, no I did not know that. Great, now I need to sit through his new videos being pissed off, just so I can get more pissed off!

[stiimuli]

@PsychoticSnake whats even more tragic is that he shot and killed an innocent girl before killing himself =/

There's a video of the news report in the side bar over there ---->
