"Darwinic pilgrims claim the image fills them with an overwhelming feeling of logic." - OneLess, on 09/05/2008, -4/+196"Behold the power and glory of the scientific method!"
BEHOLD! - inactive, on 09/05/2008, -5/+113Oh yes the onion is coming down hard on delusionals lately, I love it!
- inactive, on 09/05/2008, -4/+101Sadly, that's how the religious community actually views us. For some people, it's just too difficult to imagine life without unquestioning faith.
- diceau, on 09/05/2008, -5/+92Hah! Bite me, Onion, I knew it was your article before I even finished the title that time!!!
Me: 1
Onion: 1,000 - Hamarkhis, on 09/05/2008, -6/+75It's a miracle !
- roomforpanic, on 09/05/2008, -1/+61The other day my 14 year old nephew (who lives with me) had to get his test paper signed and sent back because his answer to a question about listing the elements of the scientific method was:
1 Define the question
2 Gather information
3 Form hypothesis
4 Get results
5 Discuss results
6 Get a new job
7 Master the art of kung fu
I couldn't tell him so, but I was never more proud. - Dainjah, on 09/05/2008, -0/+54*Wooosh!*
- whahaa, on 09/05/2008, -1/+52"It's a stain on a wall, and nothing more," said the Rev. Clement McCoy, a professor at Oral Roberts University and prominent opponent of evolutionary theory. "Anything else is the delusional fantasy of a fanatical evolutionist mindset that sees only what it wishes to see in the hopes of validating a baseless, illogical belief system. I only hope these heretics see the error of their ways before our Most Powerful God smites them all in His vengeance."
- ASSASSYN360, on 09/05/2008, -5/+54The wall has evolved.
- douglasr007, on 09/05/2008, -5/+52Oh my science.
- pintomp3, on 09/05/2008, -1/+42"evolution is a theory and i don't accept it" ron paul
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6JyvkjSKMLw - ncc74656m, on 09/05/2008, -7/+46And this is why I love the Onion.
- inactive, on 09/05/2008, -1/+40The other day, my son and I were discussing such things as well, and the question was posed to him, "Do you believe in God?", and he said, and this is his answer:
"Yes, but I also believe in the cake!"
I could die tomorrow, and know that I have done my job as a father;) - Crazysticks, on 09/05/2008, -21/+59Alternate: Revolutionists flock to Ron Paul shaped cow spot.
- BadseedJR, on 09/05/2008, -2/+38I read 3 articles before I even noticed it was the onion. The "Pedophile nervous for first day of school" was very disturbing for a second. I'm an idiot.
- lanzemurdok, on 09/05/2008, -2/+37those crazy evolutionists. Believing everything they see as "science"
- inactive, on 09/05/2008, -1/+35Welcome to the Internet.
- z00s, on 09/05/2008, -4/+37I consider myself to be a strong Christian, but I am the first to say that people who lose their sight by trying to see Mary in the sun or who look for pictures of God or Jesus in random places have a screw loose.
- ScienceDoc, on 09/05/2008, -3/+34Today I had an Archaeopteryx on my grilled cheese. 'Tis truly a miraculous day.
- whahaa, on 09/05/2008, -1/+32yikes rtfa
- azhura, on 09/05/2008, -5/+35You mean that Darwinism is not a faith?!
*throws out her copy of The Origin of Species* - bakamas, on 09/05/2008, -0/+30"After seeing this miracle of limestone pigmentation with my own eyes, my faith in empirical reasoning will never again be tested."
oh wow....kudos to whoever came up with that line. It blew me away. - pintomp3, on 09/05/2008, -1/+29well, that and separation of church and state. and a woman's right to choose. and gay marriage. and sodomy. and net neutrality.
- zeitgueist, on 09/05/2008, -1/+27Wow. Assuming troll here.
- zeitgueist, on 09/05/2008, -2/+25Uh...your link has nothing to do with what you wrote, for one thing.
And noting your error factor is a basic part of scientific procedure. Darwin laid the basework, his hypothesis has since been refined and corrected into a very solid theory. - inactive, on 09/05/2008, -2/+25*waits for religious zealot to try to compare people who believe evolutionary theory by natural selection with their belief in creation*
- Rikkochet, on 09/05/2008, -0/+21I had a buddy who had to do some irritating current events/political science group presentation in his first year of college and his partner spewed out some absurd thing the US government was secretly doing. When the prof asked her source she said "A newspaper called The Onion". I believe my buddy's facepalm was audible throughout campus.
- KingGorilla, on 09/05/2008, -0/+20The Onion: 1
beinss: 0 - IphtashuFitz, on 09/05/2008, -0/+18Science, damn you!
- dnields, on 09/05/2008, -1/+19They didn't "go out of their way to make that scene happen".
They did some very minor manipulations to a photo of the "Virgin Mary Stain" in Illinois:

Thanks for playing. - lbcyber, on 09/05/2008, -1/+18No, the wall was intelligently designed.
- ironhide, on 09/05/2008, -0/+17Please tell me that was sarcasm.
- inactive, on 09/05/2008, -0/+16Yeah, it IS ridiculous. It's called satire...
- mithrasinvictus, on 09/05/2008, -0/+15buried because you have no sense of humor.
- sonoran, on 09/05/2008, -0/+15"Makes you think, doesn't it." In your case... not
- warispeace21, on 09/05/2008, -1/+16...
- rossnyc, on 09/05/2008, -1/+15I'm not so smart. I glanced over it and came back here looking for links with more photos.
- D3koy, on 09/05/2008, -2/+16Play nice guys, he may not know what the onion is...
- jonhinson, on 06/15/2009, -1/+15Darwin bless the onion.
- Akairenn, on 09/05/2008, -3/+17The ability for you to own a SUV and an XBox is not what the founding fathers meant by 'general welfare'.
Nor did it mean, "Hi, Americans! Be lazy bastards and don't bother working - we'll just declare war against England and send out letters of marque to supply you with English cheese to eat." - AegisSailor, on 09/05/2008, -1/+14That is easily one of the most funny thing's I've ever read on The Onion.
"Behold- the scientific method!"
Priceless. - BXRWXR, on 09/05/2008, -1/+14FYI - he's a troll.
- ceredron, on 09/05/2008, -3/+15That's actually a pretty well-done picture. Damn, the onion went out of their way to make that scene happen.
- TedTschopp, on 09/05/2008, -0/+12and here I thought the last step would be:
7. Profit! - DforSpiD, on 09/05/2008, -1/+12It's there just to upset you, and it will stay there forever just to upset you
- M4tchstickM4n, on 09/05/2008, -0/+11The fact that they manipulated an image of a "Virgin Mary Stain" makes this piece even better. Go Onion!
- fishermat33, on 09/05/2008, -5/+16Lmao, as both a Christian and a Scientist I approve of this.
- inactive, on 09/05/2008, -1/+12Onion articles like this are done for 2 reasons. To entertain the enlightened, and to educate the ignorant. Sadly, it only succeeds with one of those because the message is totally lost on the other party involved.
