That post gave me cancer.
[–]the_killer666 43 points44 points45 points 8 hours ago
Don't worry, in case of legitimate cancer, the atheist body has ways of shutting it down.
[–]pseudonym1066 4 points5 points6 points 8 hours ago
Guys, it isn't real. It is satirizing the arguments it is putting forward.
I find it amusing I'm telling a group of atheists that "this isn't real".
[–]PaddyMaxson 4 points5 points6 points 7 hours ago
Atheist belief that Christians are dumb is even grater than Christian belief that god exists.
[–]pseudonym1066 7 points8 points9 points 6 hours ago
Your spelling of the word 'greater' is grating.
[–]PaddyMaxson 2 points3 points4 points 6 hours ago
oops.
[–]benevolENTthief -2 points-1 points0 points 1 hour ago
Your belittling someone because they had an obvious typo is denigrating.
[–]Aavagadrro 0 points1 point2 points 5 hours ago
It must be due to some sort of empirical evidence.
[–]PaddyMaxson 0 points1 point2 points 4 hours ago
"Christians are dumb" is not provable with empirical evidence, as it assumes all "Christians" are "dumb", these terms are way too ill defined to be provable. There are so many sects of Christianity that even defining what a Christian is, scientifically is a ballache.
Dumb should essentially mean unable to speak, and I know there's evidence that most Christians can speak.
I agree, lots of Christians are dumb in the sense I originally intended, but lots of them aren't.
[–]Bjottis 1 point2 points3 points 6 hours ago
http://www.landoverbaptist.net/showthread.php?t=64512 Assuming when you say it isn't real you mean that there is no Christians actually believing this shit. If what you are saying is that the argument is flawed then you did not like me assume that 99% of the readers of this forum, theist and atheists alike, would understand this.
[–]pseudonym1066 0 points1 point2 points 6 hours ago
The original post was satire, like The Onion.
The fact that some people misunderstand the satire in The Onion as reality doesn't stop it being satire. See this website for examples of people thinking the fake news stories in The Onion are real
Similarly the fact that some people (atheist and Christians alike) misunderstood this parody as real doesn't stop it being a parody - ie fake.
[–]Bjottis 1 point2 points3 points 4 hours ago
I assumed the poster was satirical. The argument seems satirical as well but on the other hand I've encountered arguments before that I though was satire but turned out to be "real". If you are stating that the argument is satirical is that just your opinion or do you have a source to the origion of this argument?
[–]pseudonym1066 0 points1 point2 points 41 minutes ago
No, I'm fairly confident this is a repost and we've had this discussion before although I can't find the original in the 30 seconds I've spent on google. I did notice that there have been many many reposts of this image from the last few months on other forums.
So yeah I guess given I can't prove it easily I am basing this on my own opinion, but come on guys, are you being serious? Obviously it is satire. You know the joke amongst us Brits is that Americans don't understand irony or sarcasm. I'm assuming the majority of people here are Americans as reddit has a greater proportion of readers from that country.
Come on guys, please! Break away from the xenophobic cultural stereotype of being unable to understand irony or sarcasm. Prove that stereotype to be wrong. Of course the original image is sarcastic. Do you think The Onion is a serious news source and Edward Current is presenting his genuine opinion as well?
[–]Walter_Burns 0 points1 point2 points 5 hours ago
I'm pretty sure this entire website is satire... At least I hope it is. It reads really obviously like one.
[–]Bjottis 0 points1 point2 points 2 hours ago
Rofl! Thanks for pointing that out. I really hope so too. I also hope it is a group effort making all that should take a lot of work. :-)
[–]GJCaesar1138 0 points1 point2 points 1 hour ago
I can confirm, Lamdover Baptist is a satire site.
[–]badassmcnuggets 0 points1 point2 points 5 hours ago
The cancer was benign.

Oh thank god. But thete are people this stupid out there.

[–]GSoviet306 1 point2 points3 points 12 minutes ago
Agreed.
[–]neostorm360 32 points33 points34 points 15 hours ago
Im convinced that crap like this was created by atheists so that Christians look retarded when they parrot it.
[–]meantamrajean 6 points7 points8 points 9 hours ago
It is a poe... Seen it here before
[–]pseudonym1066 2 points3 points4 points 8 hours ago
You're saying that as if it is a joke when it is a statement of fact. OP seems to think the original image is real when it is satire.
[–]Moos_Mumsy 26 points27 points28 points 15 hours ago
My favourite part is where we assume that the population of earth is a static 6 billion since day 1.
[–]bring_out_your_dead 23 points24 points25 points 16 hours ago
Apparently living creatures don't pee.
Damn.
[–]Aikidi 17 points18 points19 points 8 hours ago
Pee isn't water.
Lol stupid atheists.
[–]Xeonit 4 points5 points6 points 7 hours ago
Not sure if...
[–]TheMaverick13 0 points1 point2 points 6 hours ago
It eventually gets back into it stupid religion person
[–]ShallowBeThyGames 15 points16 points17 points 16 hours ago
You've got to be actively trying to be that stupid. Idiots can't even muster that level of stupid.
[–]zack_w 3 points4 points5 points 15 hours ago
I guess all the water disappears once it goes down the drain. Damn. Not to mention all the third world countries which use little water daily
[–]Smeagol3000 4 points5 points6 points 8 hours ago
If an actual fundie had made this it would; A) have a lot less math and B) have shit loads of spelling/grammatical errors.
[–]BangsNaughtyBits 2 points3 points4 points 16 hours ago
If I recall, this is from Cristwire or Landover, at least that's where I saw it first.
I thought I saw a #2 about gravity somewhere but can't find it.
!
[–]Nisas 0 points1 point2 points 5 hours ago
Yeah I think this is satire.
[–]domogoesrawr 1 point2 points3 points 13 hours ago
Oh praise Jesus. A foolproof argument for religion!
[–]cronus85 2 points3 points4 points 9 hours ago
This has to be a troll who made this. There is no way a person who can use numbers that large is ignorant of living creatures excreting water or that while the earth is billions of years old, the human race isn't.
[–]void_er 1 point2 points3 points 8 hours ago
This is a troll, right? People who have the ability to write can't really be that stupid, can they?
[–]Cheddercheese 2 points3 points4 points 4 hours ago
Because remember, pee doesn't exist! And the water cycle? Atheists just made that up!
[–]HectorAnonymous 0 points1 point2 points 16 hours ago
That condescending bit at the end made me want to strangle someone.
[–]SeldomSeven 0 points1 point2 points 15 hours ago
Wow. I never thought of it that way. Game over. I guess I'll go join a church now....
[–]Tr2v -1 points0 points1 point 15 hours ago
Aww it's cute that they included "citations".
[–]Silberchen -1 points0 points1 point 11 hours ago
Please tell me this is not real. Come on, kids learn this stuff in grade school.

Poe's las ......Poe's law
[–]TheSuitGuy 0 points1 point2 points 8 hours ago
This reminds me of a post I saw about how evolution couldn't be real, because even if the "atheist propaganda" was true and the world really was older than 6000 years, there still hasn't been enough time for cell division to result in even 1 person being born. The math involved was so bad, it was astoundingly funny.
[–]Nik_E_Slogan -1 points0 points1 point 7 hours ago
Stupid doesn’t evolve into better, more convincing arguments. If there is no pressure to outperform the other strains of stupid then it just mutates into infinite varieties of stupid.

As an atheist, I'm offended that the unit used was liters. How dare they!
[–]almighty_ruler -1 points0 points1 point 5 hours ago
No one has noticed or wants to comment on the massive mathematical errors these dimwits have made?
[–]AVVIT 1 point2 points3 points 5 hours ago
Could it be that an Atheist has written this to make Theist's look stupid ? any proof as to where this came from ?
[–]Cummins2395 0 points1 point2 points 5 hours ago
The stupid... It hurts

This can't be real.
[–]keivant 0 points1 point2 points 4 hours ago
Have they forgotten second grade science?
[–]misterfanwank 0 points1 point2 points 4 hours ago
While the argument in question here is silly because the water cycle is a well known phenomenon, without knowledge of the water cycle this would be a valid concern about the Old Earth theory.
[–]Faint94 0 points1 point2 points 4 hours ago
one of the funniest things ive ever read
[–]Ckvega 0 points1 point2 points 4 hours ago
I've seen this pop up a few times but I've never worked out if it's a troll or someone was actually that stupid.
[–]jameskelsey 0 points1 point2 points 3 hours ago
The retard is strong in this one. Does not understand first grade science me thinks.
[–]terracnosaur 1 point2 points3 points 3 hours ago
You can't trust a creationist with math! That's like giving a grenade to a monkey.
[–]Anticipator1234 0 points1 point2 points 1 hour ago
Sorry, the monkey would be more likely know how to use the grenade.

Anyone care to count the ways this has faulty logic?
[–]kent_eh 0 points1 point2 points 6 hours ago*
Wow.
Even my 8 year old understands the water cycle.
Apparently they're not smarter that a fifth third grader

Edit: Yeah, I've been gotten by Poe's law..again. Dammit.

someone remind this guy that water source over time is infinite.
[–]hypermirage 1 point2 points3 points 12 hours ago
I'm pretty sure that scripture has never backed me up. But I guess it won't matter if science stops backing me up; the day Science stops working, arguments with imbeciles will be the least of anyone's problems.
[–]Mahjonks 0 points1 point2 points 11 hours ago
I've never peed in my life, am I doing it wrong?

What an stupid moron. When u drink water it doesnt distrois it but transform it. It eventually go back to the ocean after we pii, sweat, shit and our life ends.
