"As a Christian, I can see that a lot of science just doesn't make sense. How do I know? Because I have two eye, I read the bible and I don't believe everything I'm told."
Well, mr. I don't believe everything I'm told, why do you believe the bible?

"As an American it is my god given to decide what's true and what isn't"
In a way, yes and no. But in a more accurate way, no. Some, and indeed most, things are absolute. Black is black, black is not gray. "truth" is always relative to the question that's asked though, it has to be a question. When you boil it down the the basics, you opinion is not really important. You can believe that the moon is made of cheese, and decide this with your god give right, but that doesn't make it true.

... I feel bible-rolled. I was surprisingly far into this video before I realized it was a parody.

So, alright, I'll take another approach. It is a sad state indeed, when well-made satire is so close with the thing it satires. This is only a stone's throw away from actual bible-thumping. I wish, I really wish, that the people who are so eager to find holes and weaknesses in Evolution looked with only half as critical eyes to their scripture, which would then reveal the fraudulent, illogical, evil beast that it propels.

Shaun of the Dead is so freaking awesome and British. Hot Fuzz is as good, if anyone hasn't seen it yet.

I did this once with this girlfriend I had.. in this cartoon I drew.. in my mind.

Argh, seven hours too late. You prowl richarddawkins.net more often than I, BRM.

This is just astounding. I do hope this controversy doesn't wok in the film's favor. Any publicity is good publicity, but I hope not in this case.

Well... he won't resist arrest, that's for sure.

Jesus please don't stop Wednesday. Hilarious.

Uh-huh, now that I have my star, I can finally downvote this attention-whore. Life is good.

I fell over this while looking through my own comments for some reason (I HAVE NO LIFE), and to people who argue against evolution on the basis of probability I have a little conundrum for you, a riddle if you will.

If I take one (1) six-sided die and roll it, we can all agree that, given an even die, the chance of getting one eye(1) is 1/6.

Doing that twice and getting exactly 1 and 1 has a probability of (1/6)*(1/6) = (1/6)^2= 1/36. Agreed? The same goes for any combination, as long as I decide the exact order first.

If I do that a million times then the chances of getting any given order is (1/6)^1000000, which is a very, very small probability.

Now when I roll the die one million times in a row, I write down the order in which it landed (1, 4, 4, 3, 6, 1 (...)) and the odds of me hitting any given order is astronomically small, yet I hit one single order.

If I do it again, I will almost certainly not hit the same order again, but I hit an order that has exactly as low probability as any other order that is defined exactly.

This is the same way with evolution. If you look at it as though it has to hit a master plan then, of course, statistically the numbers just don't fit. It would be impossible to predict the 1 million numbers in my experiment also. But when you look at it, they way it should actually be looked at, as without any plan, without any meaning, but only a direction then it makes sense. You cannot argue against evolution with a statistical analysis for this exact reason.

Wtf, there were ninjas! They always come with no warning.

He's not really EA, he's Mythic, the developer of Warhammer Online and Dark Age of Camelot. If you go to warhammeronline.com you can see quite a lot of videos with him about the game.

In a straight-up fight cat < dog.

This was actually pretty sweet. The ending part reminds me of Richard Dawkins' look on life. Treasure it, because this is the one you get.

I've liked Nightwish for a while now, but now that they've changed their singer, I'm not really that into it anymore. It's gotten more like Evanescence and sort of lost its "edge". :-/

The way it's presented is a bit misdirecting. Time doesn't slow down, because time is the same as it always is. The brain takes in information faster thus slowing the subject's perception of time. Incidentally, this is why it is so hard to swat a fly, because it takes in information quite fast and perceives the world as slow-motion, compared to us.

I see no reason why our brain shouldn't be able to speed up with the right chemicals, like for instance adrenaline.

Now if we could safely induce these drugs and speed up our brain in the right situations, then super-soldiers are closer than ever.

Alright, that does it. That page is so very annoying.
