Some of the biblical God's greatest bloopers

Post by Hermit » Mon Jan 05, 2015 9:48 am

In my opinion the mosquito is proof positive that the omniscient, omnipresent and omnipotent Abrahamic God does not exist, but, as Seth likes to say, a negative cannot ever be proven. So, let's assume he does exist and have a look what this God has wrought instead. If the assumption of his existence is correct, that is. Here, courtesy of Cristina Rad, are ten things he has not got quite right:

Seth is wrong, just for a refreshing change. It's pretty trivial to prove a negative.

So what if you can't prove a negative? It's such a stupid fucking argument. "Oh, you can't prove Obama isn't a reptilian overlord." "Oh, you can't prove aliens didn't build the pyramids."

So fucking what? Its a retarded argument for drooling morons. Or used by dipshits to wind people up.

Maybe I should have not metioned difficulties about proving a negative. To begin with, it may be difficult to prove that no god exists, but this issue does not even apply here. We are talking about a very particular and minutely described and identified god - the Abrahamic, interfering busybody of the Bible.

Shall we accept his existence for the sake of the argument and focus on his fuckups please?

But why when evolution provides a much more robust explanation?


Ok, for the sake of it. Relgious people are God's biggest fuck up. God shouldn't of invented a system by which people worship him if people were only going to fight over who worships him the most. Seriously, they're like guys clamouring and fighting over each other trying to impress a beautiful woman.

It is true that religious people all agree that God is beautiful and worthy of their desire to please.

Mosquitos have plenty of redeeming attributes. Bet there's at least 10 good reasons to be glad we have them.
Thank you God for mosquitos.

If not for the darkness, there'd be no lamps, and noses are built for spectacles.

We should all be thankful mosquitoes are not nasal bots! Right LIRC?

That's me who likes to say that, and in the cases that Seth wants us to prove, it's correct. For the same reason that Seth can't prove he's not a buffalo fucker.

Prove that in an infinite set the number 42 doesn't exist in it.

So just to be clear with what Hermit is babbling on about in the OP... Seth often asks us atheists to prove that god doesn't exist. He thinks he's having a win, even though no atheist on this site that I know of asserts that god doesn't exist. Instead of playing his idiotic game, I like to point out to him that you can't prove such a negative (that a deistic god doesn't or didn't once exist), so it's a retarded question. And that of course says absolutely nothing about the likelihood of such a god existing.

List them. My bet is that you'll mention that one of the good reasons is that we can't appreciate not feeling itchy unless we experience itch. I also bet that any others you list are just as shitty.

After watching that video I have to conclude that God does indeed exist. Cut the deity some slack. Perfection takes time; it's a continual process of trial and error. Sure He may have made some mistakes along the way but He finally got it quite right when He made the woman in the video.
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.

But those letters are not silent.

They're just waiting their turn.
