SLOW CLAP

Anglo-Saxon royal genealogies also trace back to the Germanic god Woden. So this is clear proof that Woden exists and still does.

I'm just...just so weary.

This is how they win, isn't it? They just assault us with endless waves of stupidity until we're too tired to argue anymore and don't care how many idiots believe them.

Well, we've got assholes like Richard Dawkins who seems to never tire of arguing with these people.

I dunno is that the right attitude. How about provide decent public education for all then ignore them and they will go away. Its worked pretty well for last few centuries.


StanleyPain - 2013-08-13

You're mistaking Dawkins for someone else. Dawkins occasionally butts heads with these types on talk shows he's invited on to, but he avoids them otherwise apart from when he did his BBC shows exposing religious retards for being themselves. He agreed to the interviews that were used to defame him in "Expelled" because he, like all the other scientists in it, were lied to about the content of the movie.

Dawkins infamously will not debate or engage in one-on-one type interviews with creationists any longer. He thinks treating them like the other side of a real issue gives them credibility they don't deserve. If you want to look for people giving creationist morons like Ray Comfort, Ken Ham, and eric Hovind way more press than they deserve, you should probably look to the YouTube atheist brigade who, foolishly, think that by constantly playing games these people, they're somehow "showing them up" when in fact it's giving them exactly the kind of fuel they need for their activities. I understand that Dawkins is apparently the only high-profile anti-theist most people know about, but yeah....he's not remotely "always arguing" with these types.


SteamPoweredKleenex - 2013-08-13

I think a lot of people call Dawkins an asshole for not showing "respect" for religious beliefs. That means he gives them the same level of serious consideration as the tooth fairy, the Greek pantheon, etc. having followers that demand laws and special consideration for having imaginary friends.

This is horrifying to those who actually believe in deities, of course, who sometimes want anyone who says "Jesus/Allah/whoever isn't real" to be charged with a hate crime.

I just want to live long enough to watch nature kill them for being stupid. Vengeance is nature's.


Mr. Purple Cat Esq. - 2013-08-14

I'm a militant athiest myself. I just think Dawkins is honestly a bit of an asshole. Hes one of those celebrity scientists who hasnt contributed to science much. He has written popular science books but they are not good and his Oxford don (he actually is one too) writing style gives a bad impression, and I imagine would turn people off if it was the 1st popular science book they read (Which is likely as they are very popular)


Jet Bin Fever - 2013-08-13

So Beowulf is nonfiction... okayyy. I mean, I guess ancient humans were unable to make shit up, which IS evident in the absolute literal truth of the Bible. Right?


Mother_Puncher - 2013-08-13

I normally 1 star most of Tim and Eric shit but this was pretty masterfully done


Hooker - 2013-08-14

So glad I will be long dead when the question of "did Han Solo actually exist?" comes up.


memedumpster - 2013-08-14

"Beerwolf!"


chumbucket - 2013-08-14

"fresh hops? Arooooooooooooo!!!"

"This is quite strong evidence, strong hints, not proof, but strong hints, that people have seen dinosaurs in the past."

There is just no comedic response to that. It is beyond ridicule.


dementomstie - 2013-08-14

I'm now picturing a fight between Beowulf and the T-Rex from Toy Story. A mighty warrior comes along and Wallace Shawn doesn't understand why he wants to fight. The guy tears off the poor creature's arms and all he's saying is that such a tactic is inconceivable.

If all national mythologies are true, we gotta put together an expedition to recover the Sampo immediately!


Kieran27 - 2013-08-14

Whenever he says "Many of us have put forth..." and "Many of us think..." I picture him at home in his basement, sitting at a desk with shelves upon shelves all around filled with My Little Pony figurines and telling them all he's so happy they agree with his Grendel = Dinosaur theory.


The Mothership - 2013-08-14

Yes, this is what is insidious about this guy: the subtly misleading linguistic suggestion that scholars agree with him and take him seriously. Which we do not.


kingofthenothing - 2013-08-14

How come these motherfuckers have money and I'm broke?

... but even being a young example of the creature, it had a head big enough to bite a man whole."

Go bite a man-hole yourself, you idiot.
