"I'm amazed at how many people believe that god actually did create the universe

it's a great parable/fable/story/whatever to give people something to believe in

but i feel sorry for people who think that it's anything but A. divine evolution? are you serious? god is sitting somewhere telling a tortoise on one of the islands in the galapagos to have an arch in the front of his shell to allow them to reach higher branches? or he made the trees on one island to be home to a particular type of bug that lays larva in the bark and then made a finch with a beak used to make tools out of twigs to pry said larva out?

it's amusing that people actually believe that is true but know santa claus is fake by the time they're 10"


it is possible to be an atheist and still be closed-minded, y'know

I think that a lot of people who consider themselves atheist are actually anti-theist.


But that's for another discussion.

Well, it needn't be a "do nothing" god -- just a "didn't create evolution" god.
That still leaves plenty.

Evolutionarily speaking...
Some anthropologists suggest that the reason our primate brains love the sight of boobies, is simply because they resemble butt cheeks

I thought it had to do with the larger they are the more milk they can provide and therefore support the offspring better, that's why guys like bigger tits.

But... I like boobies a LOT more than butt cheeks.
A woman with a great ass is okay, a woman with great tits is great.

Also, roundness and perkiness is far more important than size, and after about D they tend to get unattractively large/saggy/weird-looking.

Fuck boob science.

You do realize that we all start life female.

Hence why we have nipples.

In other words, round and protruding.... like a butt cheek.

And let's not forget the invention of the bra... I'm not even sure it was invented for support.
I think men just liked the way boobs and cleavage resembles two butt cheeks and a butt crack.

Quote :
"A woman with a great ass is okay, a woman with great tits is great."
I'd pick a woman with a great ass and no tits over a woman with great tits and no ass. That's just me...
And why do primates only have 2 breasts? lol... Can you imagine women with 4? 6?

natural process

doesnt rule out creationism in and of itself

but you cant deny evolution and natural extinction exists

Quote :
"darwinian evolution = Plants and animals adapted to their environments through random mutations and/or natural selection."

i have a prob with this definition, creatures do not adapt to environments randomly through mutations
