11. I can't answer that.
I obviously cannot match your impressive skills in philosophical debate.

I'm defeated.

:dunce:

19. I am honored and awed to have witnessed this exchange.
Or maybe I should have had more breakfast?

14. There are a few of those around these parts, too
I've also seen a few "Truth" fishes eating a Darwin fish. It takes a lot of self-control to not ram the car in front of me when I'm behind one of them.

4. More fundy propaganda....
How clever. Using a Darwinian term to try to denigrate Darwinism :eyes:. Where can I find a truth fish eating a Jesus fish? I'm not anti-Christian, but I think it would be appropriate none-the-less. These people have declared a war on truth and reason.

9. Yes, very clever. Especially if you're in the fifth grade. I am not

5. I've seen Darwin fish being eaten by "Truth" fish
I think it's in the same vein. It's the best they can do, since they can't refute the fossil evidence.

10. Ooooooh. Fundy beliefs are more fit than evolution. Clever.
That sure does teach a thing or two to those of us in the reality-based community.

So, Mr. Fundy, do you want the drugs that will kill the germs as they were first discovered or the drugs that kill the newly evolved version of the germs that you actually have? Choose carefully.

12. I've been seeing that around here alot.
I live in the Rev. Pat's backyard. However, I saw an even better one. It is the Darwin fish being eaten by the Jesus fish being eaten by a T-Rex and under it, it said "Reality". Thought that was funny.

13. Another Christian compensating for religious doubt by
screaming what they fervently wished they could believe.

Like a frightened man talking tough, the louder a Christain shouts his or her beliefs, the more they are trying to convince themselves. How often do you hear Carter or Jesse Jackson or Al Gore forcing their beliefs on others? They don't have to, they are comfortable with their faith.

15. an attempt at humor.
fundie humor is usually not that well-thought out. I wouldn't sweat it. consider the source.

its actually fundies taking back the fish symbol from those who took their fish symbol, put feet on it and put Darwin in the middle.

if nonfundies expect people to have a sense of humor about THAT, they should relax.

21. Doesn't matter....
because REAL fish have toxic levels of mercury and other heavy metals in their systems, not to mention pfisteria bacteria infection which causes thousands of fish to die in multiple massive "fish kills" every year.

I wish these psycho dipshit bible thumping victims of mass delusion would wake up and smell the god damned coffee... but oh I forgot, we can just SCREW the ecosystem we depend on because hey the RAPTURE is coming anyhow.

end of rant.
