Joe Rogan takes on Noah's Ark believer.

gigersays...

Ok. The simplicity, and beauty, of this Rogan comment is that a simpleton (Joe Rogan) is able to point out the fallacies of the 'supposed intellectuals' of faith.

I don't think the camera buddies are helping him out in any way. The simple fact that this educated and well funded faither being trumped by a meathead presupposes any budy factor that COULD be implied.

"I'm not going to tell you we actually found the arch, but I'll tell you what we found;" What a strong openning statement!

'We didn't find the Arch, but I'll now proceed to justify how I've wasted my life, and, in turn, waste your time.'

BOTH INCORRECT.
fossils of sea life are found at the tops of mountains because mountains grow higher from tectonic plate movements. it's not possible for the world's oceans to get higher than how much water there actually is on the planet, so that hypothesis is already out the window!

Ah but you see, the need for "evidence" and "hypotheses" is completely trumped by the "magic" that "God" uses. The beauty of religion is that you don't /need/ proof. In fact, believing in God gives you permission to reject proof or even the very need for proof.

Arguing with a believer is like trying to blow out a light bulb.

not strictly true, many moderates can be shown that what they thought was 'plausible' is just a big fat hairy lie. it just takes a lot of effort.
fundamentalists on the other hand...

This was great. Joe points out the stupidity of believing these stories as being FACT... I GUARANTEE you they were never meant to be taken as fact initially... they are STORIES which have morals (however odd they may be) and try to get their point across in a memorable way.

To hear the story, and then take that to be an ACTUAL occurance... my GOD(tee hee... I don't believe in him, so he isn't mine) you have to be thick.

Plus Joe points out that the translation as we have of the bible can't really be trusted anyway... and then (which he didn't go into) on top of that, on top of just bad translations, we also have PURPOSEFUL alteration and insertions into the bible by the Romans and others.

ANYONE who takes ANYTHING written in that darn book as being the word of God, even if they believe in him, are just plain nuts.

Baerasays...

Up-vote purely for Joe educating himself on the topics he does comedy on. Far too often we have people prodding religion without educating themselves, on both sides of the fence.

Joe Reagen So he is the authority on this subject matter?


However the other dude actually goes out and investigates and actually sees a large vessel way up a mountain which happens to have the proper dimensions as listed in the BIBLE and to be in the relative area with respect to biblical reading. He does not actually claim it to be the ARC but indicates striking coincidence.


Shameful

If they've in fact proven that there is a "boat" there, good on them. So they found the vessel from which all of these inter-religious stories stem from. This does not make the stories true.

Do you actually believe it was physically possible to fit two of every animal (including insects and other tiny organisms) in the world on a single boat?

If you can say yes to that question I'd like to see the schematics of the boat you have in mind and the explanation of how only a single family was able to build this vessel.

What this is, is exactly what Joe Rogan says and what others in this thread have re-iterated. It's probably a story about some major cataclysm that happened in the past, before the written word, and was passed down by word-of-mouth, like one giant game of telephone that spans centuries and maybe even millenia before it was even written down.
