Fox news is lucky to have such a knowledgeable individual. Never has there been such a paragon of critical thinking, we are all but pinheads to this great intellect. It is obvious that God has blessed this man with the wisdom of Buddha and Einstein's intelligence. It's much more likely he is a popular television personality for these reasons than the dumb luck that comes with being a selected as a shill for baseless conservative propaganda.

How... How do you... How old is he? How do you reach that age without ever having opened a book on science or cosmology? Or hell, Wikipedia? That's right, I forgot. Conservapedia.

Jesus, Bill. You're fucking pathetic.

The guy can't figure out the difference between a loofah and a falafel. How do you expect him to understand something as complicated as gravitation?

The problem is not with O'Reilly, he is an idiot, in a sane world he would be packing Cheeri-Os into a box and making minimum wage. The problem is that millions of Americans listen to this idiot and believe every word he says when he is demonstrably wrong most of the time.

"Ya know, I see this stuff... it's desperate..."

He certainly knows what he's talking about.

.......

Wait, Mars doesn't have a moon or a sun? I'm convinced. I'll be in church for the rest of my life.

Simply put Bill, yes, it did just happen. Over a very long time.

Magnets? How do they work?

I feel stupider after watching this.

And I don’t wanna talk to a scientist
Y’all motherfuckers lying, and getting me pissed.

Mars has two moons. Your point is invalid.

A montage of my facial expressions whilst watching this:

He is soooo good at not getting it. I really am in awe.

Never heard of the Dunning–Kruger effect before, thanks for the link. Reminds me of when I was 18-19. All were idiots to me then and I knew everything. The more I learn the more I wince at my past.>> ^Psychologic:

Luck. Lucky would be if we existed first and found Earth by blindly flying around in a spaceship. The fact that we evolved to live in the conditions in which we exist is not a matter of luck. This is a one in one chance. If conditions were different, we'd be different. Oh, and the moon came from Earth, and the amoeba came from a ever-so-slightly different amoeba many times until it was something not quite an amoeba. </preaching to the choir>
I still think Bill-O is a troll.

It isn't luck, it is chance based on thousands and thousands of factors over billions of years.

Once you shed the stupid notion that some magic being created everything from nothing instantly, the world and the universe becomes a breathtaking thing.

The bit at the end is price "Become a premium member and get more insights from Bill O'Reilly" ?!

how did the deity get there?

These things can be VERY intimidating... Science, Math, Physics, Chemistry...

Some people refuse to admit that these things are intimidating, often because they were taught to go the easy route of pushing their curiosity down.

BUT, I bet that a 9-year-old Bill O'Reilly was asking 'how do the tides work?', 'where did the moon come from?', etc., ... and if somebody had just barely pulled back the curtain and shown 9-year-old Bill that it is GOOD to be curious, and can be rewarding (and often easy) to find answers about how stuff works ... well, he might be a different person.


Hmm, this kind-of turned into a PSA about volunteering to help the next generation... 'Don't let your community raise more Bill O'Reilly's; volunteer your time to encouraging curiosity in the next generation!'

>> ^grinter:

how did the deity get there?


LOL "how come mars doesn't have that?"

That's brilliant. But i bet if you pointed it out to him, he'd just say "ok, so how did they get there too?" Then he'd buildd up an argument consisting of about 15 different wrong ideas, then as you carefully disprove each of the 15 points, he'd brush over it. When you got to the last of the 15 ideas and thereby prove him completely wrong, he'd just restate his argument. At which point you carefully disprove each of the......

I've talked to so many people who do this kind of thing.

Also love how he goes "cmon...." as an argument against science!

Edit: Nearly deleted my post when i saw the quote below. That basically stalemates the argument, and you both say "ok, so neither science nor god put the moon there " Brilliant strategy grinter

Wow, fuck him.

I believe he covered this... we're pinheads, desperately attacking him, ipso facto the conversation is over.

'Don't let your community raise more Bill O'Reilly's; volunteer your time to encouraging curiosity in the next generation!'

tide goes in tide goes out

Just. Frikkin'. Wow!!!

Edit: It's gotta be performance art. No other explanation (even God) can explain Billo!

I started laughing when he said 'Ok, but how did the moon get there?' and I couldn't stop laughing through the entire thing. I need to replay it because I'm pretty sure I missed everything after 'how did the moon get there?' lol.

I've liked Bill O'Reilly more ever since I started pretending he's a deadpan comedian.

Apparently, politics is actually his strong point.

I think you missed a "fu&king" in there somewhere.

Can someone tell me how an integral, derivative, trigonometry, algebra, geometry, division, multiplication, adding, subtraction works and what these constants are (the ones I keep hearing about)? I've figured out the square root of -4 so no issues there.

We should cut these things out of school. THEY NEVER HELP YOU!!1!

/extreme sarcasm...

Secondly, where did God come from? Did he just *poof* appear there? Who put him there? Why is he shaped like a human? Ad nauseum...

A scientific mind asks a question, and doesn't give up when he/she cannot find the answer. If the answer leads to another question, well, you just keep going until you are satisfied with the answer. 2 minutes of just googling and some time spent reading would have brought him to an adequate conclusion. Bill ORLY? just gladly accepts "god did it" when faced with a "tough" question that any 5th grade science teacher can answer.

Man, fuck that guy for having a platform spreading this uneducated bullshit.

Religion is intellectual laziness. Case closed.

I'll let you in on a not-so-secret secret.


[SPOILER]
BillO is a HUGE TROLL. Just listen to him, he makes it too obvious here in this clip.

I was thinking to myself "Why is the one person that DOESN'T get this stuff calling everybody that does get it a pinhead?" Thank you for answering my question.

Bill-O... I wonder what he thinks is happening when he gets an erection. Did he get a solid 1.5 GPA through life? Did he go to a "religious based" University?

Do you think we can get him to rap about it?

I read this theory. It seems so compelling, but it if you think about it... it seems like a horoscope.

I'd love to see his college finals:

Question #1: Answer: A... God.
#2: A... God.
#3: A... God.
#3: A... God.
#4: A... God.

I'm missing something I think. The way I heard it, he's asking why Mars and Venus don't have moons a sun or tides? But I know it's not humanly possible to be that stupid and I demand to know what he's getting at!

This is standard religious conservative nonsense: If *I* can't understand it, then *I* will invent a way to understand it, and thus control everything around me.

Let. go. We don't have to control everything, everywhere, all the time. While this incident is obviously a childish example of that in that tides can be very easily explained, it's the mindset that is the sickness and not the explanation.

Then again, I'm a pinhead, so....

It's not that he doesn't know how the moon got there. It's a rhetorical tactic, and if you were to explain to him about the moon and the sun etc. all the way to the big bang, he'll just keep asking questions until you end up having to say "we don't really know". Then it's God all the way, baby. The Christian one, of course.

Isn't it interesting?

Where he thinks, 'Here I am on this planet. How could it just be coincidence that as well as me being here there's things such as tides, a moon, the sun. Someone must have put all that there.'.

But yet another type of thinker would consider, 'What an amazing and expansive universe we must have that the conditions which would allow for me to exist happened somewhere within it.'.

Yeah Bill,
I guess a god/man who is his own father to a virgin mother, is made out of bread and wine, has made man from clay, and a woman from the rib of that man is a much more logical step in your twisted world you massively delusional fuck!

Now, Bill, in your simplistic world, the complexity of the internet and web-casting, when explained to an extreme detail is beyond the capacity of your cranial void that it must be God's creation.

Don't thread in unknown waters and stick to your daily demagoguery; you are much better at that.

He's trollin!

How'd god get there?

When Bill O was in school, didn't they have an opt out for all science classes?

They see me trollin, they hatin,
they roll in, and roll out
never miscommunication,
never miscommunication,

I saw a church sign the other day...

Questioning God?
He gave you the brain cells that
