I been thinkin' creationism and evolutionism lately. I have come to a decision. God is a lazy friggin' ass. He created evolution so that he could totter off and take a nap.

Barring the profanity, that actually makes some sense.

It's definitely a more plausible theory than anything Avalon has mentioned.

Lazy? Man, you don't know how hard it is to code that stuff. Seriously, it'd take months and a helluvalotta stimulants to come up with a self-regulating system like that.

The creator God must be one mad programmer.

Complete with illogicalities- only using 4 of the 6 nucleotides, 20 of over 100 amino acids, and an uneven distribution of code combinations to amino acids (some amino acids have a dozen 3-nucleotide codes, while others only have 1), for example.

So, yeah, I'd say He was using lots of stimulants. As to what kind... Well, we can only speculate one what plants He created first.

As an atheist I shouldn't know this, but....


Genesis 1:12 (I think)

...and the earth brought forth grass and herb yielding seed, and He saw that it was good.

I predict that in approximately 5-7 posts, this will devolve into a flamewar between creationists and evolutionists.

I predict this'll be locked as spam in approximately 3 posts. Or, at least, be so spammy that actual discussion becomes impossible.

You mean to tell me that Evolutionists are still around? I thaught only us Creationists remained here on Earth. :p

Yes, the creationists have been left behind.

you're all wrong: we all live in a gigantic version of the sims running on god's PC.

don't you think that God would have struck down Gates by now if he was really running windows?

I mean, God is busy, even more busy than we are, and we all get tired of downloading updates and patches, just so that it will work to a bare minimum of our expectations.

Who even said there was a god???

If we speak to god we are praying, but if he/she (you dont know) talks back to us then we are put in a looney bin!!!

How come he only tell people to commit mass genocide anyway???

Wait, thats a whole new topic.

Views Please

By that analogy the devil would be some kind of malware and Jesus would be a service pack. The Bible would probably be the EULA: nobody reads it and nobody understands it anyway.

This reminds me of that futurama episode were bender gets addicted to electricity and turns to religon, And you have the "good book 2.0".

How do we know that we are not part of something bigger? like a chair leg, i mean, come on, look at a diagram of an atom, then look at a diagram of our solar system, they look similar, Our god may be some kind of cosmic tree.

Damn, I REALLY HATE PHILOSPHIC COMMENTS!

Then what the heck are you even doing here? That's all we ever do. Assuming you meant Philosophic, of course. Philosphic is probably just the study of Phils. Which is a pretty interesting field in its own right, of course.

To completely drag this OT - the most codons that any one AA has is 6, technically you could have thousands of variations of amino acids not just 100, one of the 20 amino acids isn't amino it's imino, you mean 4 of the 6 nitrogenous bases, not nucleotides (variation in number of phosphate groups creates more, sort of) and what is the sixth base of which you speak?

Also, God would probably have the same goals as evolutionary forces - keep it simple, keep it safe.

That's such a non-intellectual cop-out.

and God taking the nap saw that it was good, (puts +1 to his golf score sheet that has golf crossed out and purgatory written in)

not really.......basically you were asking why so many pot smokers weren't Christians, and I was asking why so many Christians don't smoke pot.

there is a difference.

It's also sinful to be greedy and overly materialistic, but that mostly gets swept under the carpet these days...
