Banana Man Forced to Confront His Bullshit

Ray Comfort, AKA. Banana Man is a televangelist.

Thunderf00t is a prodigiously active maker of anti-creationist videos on Youtube.

Long story short, Thunderf00t challenged Ray Comfort to a debate and Ray accepted. The debate was roughly an hour and a half long and the first entry is linked to here. Thunderf00t performed magnificently, deftly disassembling every argument Comfort provided.

He provided an alternative to God, (Tod), and debated Comfort into admitting the only difference between God and Tod is that God has the Bible as backup.

He provided specific instances of observed speciation. Comfort stated believed in both speciation and micro-evolution, but somehow still would not admit to believing in “Evolution”.

There are more gems, I might post a few more later. Much praise to Thunderf00t for challenging Ray Comfort, and much praise to Comfort for accepting the challenge.

Ray Comfort is too set in his beliefs to change, but it’s still refreshing to see an open debate on these subjects.

Spirit of Truth

This guy has been a staple on the interwebs for quite some time now. If you haven’t received his biblical teachings set to early 90′s west coast Gangsta Rap and R&B, then you HAVE to watch this video and become enlightened.

“Three words: Not. good. for. the. country.”

“OK that’s 5 words.”

The last teaparty protest before the passing of the new healthcare bill sustains the juicy legacy of the teaparties before it.

“It’s a pitchfork. It’s made out of cardboard and it’s symbolism, symbolic. When the people get to the point where they’ve had enough, they grab their farm tools and they storm the castle.”

“I don’t think Obama believes in the Constitution”
“Even though he’s a constitutional scholar?”
“So they say”

“Fox News, everybody else is on Obama’s side”

Yes, it’s from a channel called NewLeftMedia and is not exactly unbiased. But it’s always interesting to see people earnestly regurgitating right wing bullshit. If these people weren’t voters it would be adorable, but they are so it’s a little terrifying.

Congress: Sticks and Stones

AND YOU.

Well, apparently our Congressional representatives have as much class as 3rd graders on the playground.  Bonus at the end of the article.

The Short Version: “Someone shouted “baby killer” Sunday as an anti-abortion Democratic congressman was speaking on the House floor shortly after the chamber passed a sweeping health care reform bill with his help.” — Excerpt from the CNN article.

The Basic Laws of Human Stupidity

This is an awesome article I remember coming across sometime in 2005. It stuck, and no matter how many times I go back and read it, it is still captivating.

Basic Laws of Human StupidityBasically, it breaks down humans into four categories: Helpless, Intelligent, Bandit, and Stupid. When you start to analyze the interactions between these groups as specified, you will find yourself saying “I know someone exactly like that!”

The first basic law of human stupidity asserts without ambiguity that:

Always and inevitably everyone underestimates the number of stupid individuals in circulation.
