Creationist Junk Debunked #2

'This is the second video in my series debunking creationist junk. It will look at some of the nominees for the coveted Golden Crocoduck, awarded for the biggest breach of the 9th Commandment in furtherance of the creationist cause.

Debunked in this video: The rings of Saturn show a young Earth -- We should be able to find a crocoduck -- Life should spring out of a jar of peanut butter -- God made bananas -- The Earth is flat.' - from youtube info

hehe, we just had an outbreak of salmonella in Peanut Butter... but i guess since it was packaged that way it wont count... still a surprise inside! awesome the banana guy was in there too, damn that shit is funny.

I love listening to this guy talk, he has a wonderful british accent and a nice delivery too.

Things like pointing out that the 'slam dunk' the creationist nutjobs think they have in a banana being but actually a man made creation are just gold

the banana thing really explains... evolution and natural selection...

animals preference = most used; propagated seeds in excrement = natural selection of the most used = handy banany!

all he proves is that animals know what they like to eat... he could have made a much more confounding (read: better, to creationists) argument out of the origin of such preferences.

Wow.. I thought the hardcore Christians were stretching things to make them fit into their book that was mostly written 2-300 years after the death of Christ. In Iraq there is an 'astronomer' who insists the earth is flat and the sun is real small and circles the earth because his holy book says so? Wow.. that even tops the banana guy.

You know the ironic part is that guy really wouldn't have had the opportunity to spew his idiocy under Saddam's regime.

Yeah he would. He didn't care for stupid or crazy, just stuff like democracy, freedom, accountability, liberty, wealth sharing.

Unfortunately, it doesn't work quite the way you put it. I wish it did, because it would be so much more hilarious.

Cultivated bananas are sterile so the seeds in excrement don't do anything. Banana plants are propagated by offshoots. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banana#Cultivation)

What it does demonstrate is evolution by artificial selection, which shares many similarities with evolution by natural selection.

Ray Comfort is right that the banana is intelligently and ingeniously designed. Humans made it.
