When your point is basically, "I'm smart," it helps if you can spell. Just sayin, bro.

This doesn't promote any insightful discussion or argument.

That's the point, neither does the bible.

[–]W00ster 0 points1 point ago

Really?

What it tells you is that maybe, just maybe, religious people would benefit from presenting coherent and logically valid arguments rather then the crap we are fed on a daily basis from the religious camp.

[–]Brownie_Thunder 0 points1 point ago

The image, if taken out of context, is just a low brow insult. The caption slightly pulls it into a religious arena, but there's not much substance to it. Undoubtedly religious people could benefit from valid arguments, but if they could present those they wouldn't be religious.

I think alphabet soup would pretty well digested and not be readable. Might I suggest something more fibrous. Perhaps a bag of Scrabble tiles or maybe a handful of poetry magnets?

You cannot reason with irrational people

[–]CoAmon 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

You can but it take a lot of work. You basically have to construct the rules of reason with them without explicitly telling them that's what you are doing. You basically have to trick an illogical person into being logical.

[–]dirtydave71 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

The only problem with this is that it usually works out like the old joke about never arguing with an idiot, because they will get you down to their level and beat you with experience.

That is to say, trying to reason with an irrational person won't work because you have to argue irrationally and they have more experience doing that.

If alphabet soup goes through your body undigested you have some serious health issues.

Better seek a doctor ASAP.

[–]loms 21 points22 points ago

I guess you could tell the doctor you had a vowel movement

It's a repost of a repost of a repost of a repost. And the spelling error has survived them all.

Why would you eat the bowl? Unless you put your alphabet soup into a taco salad bowl, in which case mmmm.
