Topic: Kirk Cameron is insane

[idolminds]

Its true.

I don't care what side of the debate you're on, Crocoduck means you're mentally ill. I'm sure even hardcore ID/creationists are like "WTF is that boy talking about?"

Its bad enough that he obviously doesn't understand even the basics of evolution to know that a crocoduck doesn't need to exist to prove anything. No, the bad part is he had to think this up, think it was a good idea, make the image, LOOK at the image, and then think "Oh yeah, I have them now!"

[Quemaqua]

Dude, I totally want a Crocoduck now.  I'll take it to work and make it eat my boss, then make it fly outside and poop on her car.  I can't lose!

Anyway, I didn't watch the whole thing, but I see his point.  I just can't understand why he'd use a Crocoduck to make it, since that's really just completely silly and makes him look like a dolt.

He didn't need that to sound like a dolt. That has nothing to do with what he actually said, but how he said it.

Besides, we barely want to listen to popular actor's opinions on stuff, much less a washed up on who's famous for a crappy show from the 80's... well, I suppose if Alf came out and said something I might listen... a little.

It's so disappointing to hear more of the drivel that I once thought would die out with the last century.  I didn't have to listen past "the alternative to God is evolution".  That is so much zealot bullshit.  One is unrelated to the other.  Christ.  We can all keep peas separate from corn, but so many can't seem to wrap their head around the incompatibility between science and theology.  I'm convinced it's not just ignorance, but also a supreme arrogance, which perpetuates the ignorance by choice.

My god! Keebler had a child! Why didn't anyone tell me?

Oh... it's the lame Kirk Cameron. The cool Kirk Cameron, also a fundamentalist whackjob, is a "researcher" at the Family Research Institute of Colorado Springs, and he does studies where he proves that gay people cheat on their taxes.

Are homosexuals "not dangers to society" and is homosexuality "compatible with full health"? To answer these questions 4,340 adult respondents drawn via area probability sampling from 5 metropolitan areas of the USA self-administered an extensive sexuality/public order questionnaire of over 500 items. Bisexuals and homosexuals (about 4% of the sample) as compared to heterosexuals: (1) more frequently exposed themselves to biological hazards (e.g., sadomasochism, fisting, bestiality, ingestion of feces); (2) exposed themselves sexually to more different bodies (e.g., more frequently admitted to participating in orgies, reported considerably larger numbers of sexual partners); (3) more frequently reported participating in socially disruptive sex (e.g., deliberate infection of others, cheating in marriage, making obscene phone calls); and (4) more frequently reported engaging in socially disruptive activities (e.g., criminality, shoplifting, tax cheating). From the standpoints of individual health, public health and social order, participating in homosexual activity could be viewed as dangerous to society and incompatible with full health.

God damn tax cheatin' faggots.

His brother, Paul Cameron, is responsible for the "gay people only live 39 years" myth. He came up with that figure by averaging together the ages of death from several obituaries in gay-themed magazines. (Gee, what might be wrong with such a study?)

Their God. I never thought of that. We don't have a fossil of anything like a crocoduck. (We do have some very nice crocochickens, though.)

From now on, I'm a creationist. Thank you, Mike from Growing Pains!

He was doing well with the designer, camrea lense and the human eye thing... after that it all went down hill. Haha.

I'm a Christian, and I think he sounds like a complete idiot with the crocoduck thing. I also agree that creationism/evolution has nothing to do with Christianity/Atheism. Proving either one will never prove the existance of God, or the lack thereof. I personally believe God made it all happen, but I don't know or care if He caused evolution or made man from dust. It doesn't matter.

I've heard long and heated debates about the rapture too. Christians believe that when it all hits the fan in the end days, God will pull all Christians up to Heaven with him. Some believe that happens at the beginning of the supposed 7 years of tribulation, some believe it's in the middle, some believe it's at the end. (pre-trib rapture, mid-trib rapture, and post-trib rapture) I've seen people kicked out of churches for believing a rapture time other than what the church preaches. I've also heard of heated debated about how many angels can fit on the head of a needle.

That's why I don't have a lot of Christian friends, and haven't gone to church in a while. I believe in God, and I believe the Bible is truth, but Christians tend to be vicious, relentless people who want to force people to agree with their beliefs. Of course die hard atheists preach and push just as much.

Kinda' with W7 on this one.  I'm more or less in the same place.

Over at the Rapture Ready Discussion Boards, they actually have a rule that forbids arguing about the pre-trib/post-trib thing.

Speaking of Rapture Ready, remember last year when Israel started bombing Lebanon? They had a fit about it. Everyone started ignoring the rules (especially the one about pre/post-trib fighting). People started posting "Rapture dates," although that's also forbidden by their rules.

Then the site just shut down. Like a thief in the night.

The End. Was. Nigh.

Actually, they came back a few weeks later, and most of the rampant speculating disappeared. Guess the mods weren't happy. I'd love to have seen what was going on while they were "down," but a) only registered users were allowed to read the forums and b) new user registration was disabled. (Maybe they already got 144,000 people to register?)
