- chompapotamus, on 07/05/2009, -1/+63i dunno that seems fishy to me
- smacksaw, on 07/05/2009, -7/+67Jesus existed. He was there in Hawaii when Obama was born and was the witness who signed his birth certificate.
Now everyone is confused or pissed. - Megadeth222, on 07/05/2009, -13/+64...He didn't exist, Jesus was a ploy invented by the Republicans to control Corporate America by blaming 9-11 on Muslim Extremists so that George Bush could control the world supply of oil and also Mac > PC.
- ZenMojo, on 07/06/2009, -2/+51Don't be lured. They're just fishing for diggs.
- Akairenn, on 07/05/2009, -5/+52Indeed. He makes some killer burritos.
- inactive, on 07/05/2009, -3/+50and on to your mom.
- inactive, on 07/05/2009, -2/+47damn.
- Gguillorn, on 07/06/2009, -1/+42On the grand scale of things, these puns aren't that impressive.
- TrancePhreak, on 07/05/2009, -22/+62That symbol was used to convey ones religion at a time when some religions were persecuted with death.
- kingofinternet, on 07/05/2009, -18/+53it's a zodiacal symbol co-opted by a cult involved in zombie worship.
- smacksaw, on 07/05/2009, -8/+43Not pictured: You fish are sinners and going to hell if you don't swallow me, hook, line and sinker.
- MrStabby, on 07/06/2009, -0/+32I sea what you did there.

- WNW3, on 07/05/2009, -2/+33"Digg - who, supposedly represents the norm."
If that was the case Ron Paul would be president. - inactive, on 07/05/2009, -45/+75Screw religion, its 2009, wake up
- yifanlu94, on 07/05/2009, -1/+29Dugg for not making me google.
- meowspog, on 07/05/2009, -5/+33these comments were actually not what I expected.
- inactive, on 07/06/2009, -0/+26The fastest way to get to know someone is by discussing politics and religion, but nobody really wants to get to know anyone.
- Etobian, on 07/05/2009, -10/+36About that fish on the backs of cars:
"Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth." (Ex. 20.4) - dafragsta, on 07/05/2009, -6/+30JESUS IS NOT A GAY FISH!
- RiperSnifle, on 07/05/2009, -7/+31Not hate. Logic.
- burningrobot, on 07/05/2009, -3/+25I'm an atheist, and I don't necessarily hate religion. I think religion in itself is a great way to deliver a message of morality. However, I feel that often times that isn't the case.
I don't find anything wrong with Islam, but I think it works well to make my point. After the death of Muhammad, the Muslim faith split into two major factions; the Shi'a and the Sunni. The Shi'a essentially believed that the bloodline of Muhammad should be in charge of the church, while the Sunni believed that an elected spiritual successor would work best (forgive me for leaving out a lot of the more involved reasons for the split). And since then, bickering over something so trite has cost the message of Islam to lose it's importance.
The same goes for Christianity. The Beatitudes are the real message.
Edit: Oh yeah and God's just a superstition, I love homosexuals and abortions. - TheBifman, on 07/05/2009, -5/+25That's what she said
- oriondr, on 07/05/2009, -3/+22He makes burritos too? I knew he could trim a mean hedge.
- NMRgentleman, on 07/05/2009, -15/+34You think Christians are uneducated? Shall we go down a list of Christian thinkers? Paul, John, Augustine, Aquinas, Anselm, Bonaventura, Scotus, Luther, Calvin, Descartes, Pascal, Leibniz, Berkeley, Galileo, Copernicus, Kepler, Newton, Newman, Lincoln, Pasteur, Kierkegaard, Shakespeare, Dante, Chesterton, Lewis, Solzhenitsyn, Tolstoy, Dostoyevsky, Tolkien, da Vinci, Michelangelo, T.S. Eliot, Dickens, Milton, Spenser, and Bach.
Credit where credit is due - stole this list from Handbook of Christian Apologetics by Peter Kreeft and Ronald Tacelli. - WNW3, on 07/05/2009, -3/+22So, in other words, Disco Stu and God don't need to advertise
- JoeSpaceTime, on 07/05/2009, -4/+22Pics or it didn't happen.
- RiperSnifle, on 07/06/2009, -3/+20I'm going to have some fun with this...
"Then why does logic tell me that God exists?"
It doesn't. The Bible does. And also people who believe in the Bible. That's not logic, that's word of mouth.
"Logically, this world is far too complex to have come out of nothing. "
So the Big Bang and everything after it is nothing?
"Plus, science still can't answer some question and will never be able to because they extend far past what human beings are capable of measuring."
Science exists for the very purposes of answering unanswered questions and making new discoveries. Religion doesn't WANT to seek for answers because it already has them, and anyone who questions it is wrong. That's called control.
"Do you know what's going to happen to you after you die? Science doesn't. Religion does."
No, religion claims to know. But it has no evidence. I don't think you get what 'logic' means.
"Do you know why evil exists in this world? Science doesn't deal with morality. Religion does."
Yeah, and we all just LOVE what it's done for people's morality around the world. YEESH.
Religion is the winner because people will believe anything they're told by religious leaders. Logic loses to popular demand. - DiscoLando, on 07/05/2009, -16/+32I'm just waiting to hear the tired old refrain that Jesus didn't exist. That piece of nonsense will never die.
- seanayb, on 07/05/2009, -3/+19Also the religious non-nuts.
- Crazysticks, on 07/05/2009, -3/+18SkippyBiffles is makin' a career out of this whole Digg thing.
- takamalak, on 07/05/2009, -0/+15Now you're being buried for whining about being buried.
- ZenMojo, on 07/06/2009, -0/+15Who can't reproduce, loves bacon, owns a pet goat, codes C++, can't properly conjugate the verb "to have," and mutter "om nom nom" when they eat.
- smacksaw, on 07/06/2009, -10/+24@otterp
Isn't that what stereotyping is, pre-judging? You know, like knowing that people who wear their religion on their sleeves are prone to pre-judging others and make judging a big deal in their lives?
I call it being prepared to deal with them. - ceolwulf, on 07/05/2009, -1/+14you seriously think that Digg represents the norm? and you're going to use the comments on a Digg article to stereotype the greater US culture as a bunch of Christian-bashing atheists who aren't afraid to flaunt their stuff?
I bet your mind explodes when you read youtube comments. - inactive, on 07/05/2009, -16/+29He underestimated how fat and uneducated most people would be, by choice.
- Drahkir, on 07/05/2009, -2/+15You clearly do not have even a base idea of how evolutionary theory works. No one (at least in the scientific community) has claimed that any blast endowed anyone with intelligence.
- tesla13, on 07/05/2009, -0/+13apparently it's gonna be you.
- CalcProgrammer1, on 07/05/2009, -2/+14Oh, so evolving by minute changes in genetic code over millions of years (which is entirely possible, genetic mutations are quite common and natural selection has plenty of proof) is just a made up lie while some magical leader in the sky who builds the Earth in a week is logical? There is ZERO hard evidence that backs up the magical man in the sky theory while there is plenty of existing evidence for evolution, the big bang theory, etc.
Also, the big bang =/= evolution. The big bang theory just states that everything started out as simple elements like hydrogen and other elements were formed due to fusion in a big explosion that created the universe. While this has some proof behind it I don't know how truly valid it is. Evolution, on the other hand, has a lot of research to back it up and makes sense.
"IT MUST BE TRUE!" is never the idea of an inquiring mind. Right now I believe evolution is probably how everything happened but I am content with not knowing the answer to something if there isn't any proof. If none of the current theories seem plausible, you can just accept that the true answer doesn't exist yet and go on with life. Many religions were born out of the lack of other answers. People couldn't accept that they didn't know how Earth was created so they made up stories to comfort their minds. -
