Whether they crave internet points or run out of arguments in a heated discussion, some people BS way too much. But the overwhelming amount of lies shouldn't discourage us from calling them out. On the contrary. Think of it as herd immunity: the population is protected from a disease (a fake narrative) after vaccination (a response) by stopping the germ responsible for the infection being transmitted between people (destroying that absurd fantasy with facts).
There's even a whole subreddit dedicated to this noble quest, /r/quityourbullshit. With over 1.3M members, it accumulated a large collection of screenshots and images of people calling out BS, delivering burns so big, they might just set your screen on fire.

We don't know how long a day was for God. Remember, in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints' doctrine it says that while this life takes forever for us, it is relative to a blink of an eye for God. Imagine how many blinks are in a day. If a blink for God is eighty years for us, how long is a day for God? Evolution and God CAN co-exist.
Load More Replies...Sad fact is that these churches have a massive influence on the education.
I don't mean to get into a debate about religion, but I really don't think we know enough, any of us, to definitively make any statements about greater powers or the inner workings of the Universe and Life. Maybe some religion has it right and some religion has it wrong, maybe there is no "greater power" and maybe there is. Maybe it's a god, or something not thought of in the traditional sense. Who's to say? Not me. My life is ultimately meaningless and irrelevant, and we will all one day be forgotten. So we should just enjoy ourselves and make the most of our brief existence rather than persuading ourselves we have the authority to make judgment calls on Everything. People can believe what they want, and should have the freedom to do so, but in my person opinion, we don't know enough to say for sure.
Dani, we would all get along better if we had this attitude, cheers!
Load More Replies...Just gonna throw in here that there are actually plenty of Christians who believe God could totally have used evolution to create the world and everything in it. God and Science actually get along quite well.
If someone believes in both God and evolution, he didn't get the point of at least one of them
Load More Replies...Hey, YOU should prove the inexistence of God, not doing the other way round !
All religion is mythology taken seriously because of said "faith" upon which all parties agree. Thus the burden of proof is on the believer. Extreme facts require extreme proof, which has never been provided in Christianity. QED.
Nailed it. Once again, the "you're stupid" argument proves evolution.
I think that some stuff in the Old Testament is based in truth, but a lot of it is symbolic. Take the flood for example: I believe it was probably all the ice suddenly melting at the end of the Ice Age. Also, Greek Mythology and Norse mythology also had a great flood where someone ( I think in the Norse case it was a frost giant) building a boat, or Ark.
Some people might say, ‘Well, if evolution was God’s method of creating things, why is it so complicated? Why didn’t he choose something simpler?’ My answer: God is gonna be the most powerful being in the universe right? So for him, evolution would be easy. So maybe, he doesn’t see it as being unnecessarily complicated.
The main reason why these idiots think evolution is impossible is because they insist the Bible doesn't go back millions and millions of years, just a few thousand. Well here's the kicker...time is a man made thing. God can be anywhere, any place at any era of His choosing. Time mean nothing to Him because He is not constrained by it. Time is a man made invention that allows us to tell our past from our present and our future. So a day to God could be a millions years to us and visa versa.
What if the concept of a god is people's way of explaining evolution.
People can be both religious as well as scientifically basis ones. I can't understand why religious groups terrorizes people and scares us to be more devout to our beliefs.
Technically evolution itself is just a theory right? Like you cannot completely prove it, right? No one was there at the beginning so there is no evidence to fully prove one side more than the other. Carbon dating is a really flimsy method to prove evolution because it has been shown that it has a huge error margin because Carbon 14 doesn't exist in a vacuum and can easily contaminate and exist more fruitfully in other fossils and the like. We can only infer from the past 200 ish year of observing natural selection (which is a thing). I do not believe in evolution mainly because of my faith and the number of holes represented in the theory itself. It just seems a little strange that, given even billions upon billions of years that A. Life came from nothing B. Humans came from entire kingdoms and phylum away C. There were enough mutations in a single breedable species that had the same mutation that it was given to the kids that somehow became usable and helpful to a set of species.
I cannot stand people who don't understand what 'theory' means outside of the colloquial context. Also, carbon dating is only useful for the last 50,000 years or so, Strontium dating is more useful for older timescales. This also shows that you have no idea what 'billions' of years looks like.
