Okay, guys, enough of the racist jokes.

[Jazzy Jinx]

He means that you are an idiot. Religion is more far-fetched then science. When people don't get facts or don't want to get facts they start yelling a whole load of BS and make it seem outrageous. Fact of the matter is, religion is so outrageous it doesn't even require extra thoughts to be labeled as such. In its standard form it seems ridiculous.

Don't get me wrong, I am not an aethiest. I just think that people that use science have a point. God might exist, or he might not. I don't know.

 

[Jazzy Jinx]

Ignore this.

[Uncle Meat]

The United States was the last country to abolish slavery.

Nice try. No. There's a reason the League of Nations had a big anti-slavery commission. Slavery is not abolished everywhere, anyway, from what I understand.

chimps are only 100% out of 2% differant than human...whaen man tries to figure out somthing he usualy makes it up thats how the big bang theory got made up because a person could not think of somthink real so he made it up and only did this so he would seem smart and be faumus then he made other people get involved with this lie of imagination and little "stars" blowing up...if we where stars would'nt we have stars as babies couldent we breath in space would we be too hot to to touch??? if we evolved from apes we would have apes for kids we would have super strenght and we would all be black and there would be no more apes and if there where they would need to "ke
ep evolving" that is my opinion and I say THATS A FACT you may not but i do...

I see you're an expert on those subjects... NOT!


Fact: This isn't the lame jokes thread. Unfortunately.

 

[Seed of Sorrow]

OK, Virtualgamecafe let me explan evolution to you.

Yes Monkeys/apes/whatever came from a similar ancestor as humans, it just so happened that "apes" required different adaptations than humans, thus after millions of years created a different species.

Alright, you just pushed by buttons! Nowhere in the statement about Chimps did I say we evolved from Monkeys. If anything, Monkeys evolved from us. Monkeys evolved form Humans when a group of hominiods split up. One became Monkeys; the other, a Hominid. I never said anything about the Big Bang Theory. Try to make some sense about what you read before posting an argument saying you are against it. By the way, there is no theory on evolution. There are Theories of evolution.
