Heh, heh. This is in reference to that famous Ray Comfort video, where he calls the banana "the atheist's nightmare," for the reasons shown above. Of course, our supermarket banana was deliberately created by human beings from various wild ancestors specifically to be as appealing to us as possible.
Modern bananas, in fact, are sterile. They can't reproduce in the wild, because they don't have the many large, inedible seeds of their evolved forebears. Without human beings, there would be no Cavendish bananas like the one Comfort thinks God designed just for him.
Hilarious, isn't it? I mean, this would have been dumb beyond belief even if he'd used a wild fruit for his argument. But a domesticated banana? How dumb can Ray Comfort really be?
Yeah, pretty dumb, I know. I've heard him before. This is normal for Ray Comfort and his followers, I'm afraid.
Does that make Steve Jobs God for creating the iPod and iPhone? And how many fruits and vegetables reflect the handiwork of Satan because they aren't convenient.
ReplyDeleteBill, you have a talent for finding bizarre thinkers.
Yeah, well, we bizarre thinkers have to stick together, Jim. :)
