Creationists disgrace themselves in a comic book

GoSeminoles! · Jun 8, 2005

The Ferret reports finding a novel in the free book section of Borders called A Creationist's View of Dinosaurs and the Theory of Evolution. I didn't see it at Amazon, so it's probably a low-tech self-published volume. Anywho, he scanned some hysterical comics which tell the story of how a fallen angel tried to get dinosaurs to destroy Noah's arc. It's a real shame that people like the author are allowed access to children.

I wish I could find humor in this. At this point these things are starting to make me really sad.

to have children.

If people are really so ignorant that they would give this trash to their children, then I give up. I'm going to make up a bunch of garbage like this, sell it to YECies, and make millions. Screw 'em.

And they wonder why there are so many atheists around.

This is why I hate the USA.

You know that cartoon actually upset my stomach.

Every time I see creationist propaganda that says "it's a scientific FACT" I buy some more stock in Alka-Seltzer.

Well, I have to say I'm not to fond of the way biblical science ( this view of it) is being promoted :sigh:

Like HouseApe said...

Screw it. I'm becoming a YEC. It's just too great of a business opportunity to pass up.

That caption should read,
This event is not a myth, it is not a myth, it is the plot of an as yet unreleased David Cronanberg movie

At least the artist is better than Jack Chick.

Doesn't seem to have any Biblical support either... at least not from any Bible I've ever read.

Of course, I haven't read the Bible that the artist seems to have written himself, but you can't blame me for that.

Lol.. yeah. I don't recall demons being mentioned in the OT, or anywhere else literally.

Wow! My Bible doesn't have any of that. :scratch:

Strangely, none I've ever owned have had that. (And I've owned an awful lot!)

i don't know what is scarier and unbelievable in the OP?
the comic pages or the statement that that it was found in the "free book section of Borders"?

*grin* thanks.....

Great artwork!

I believe that the pulling back of the neck seen in many fossils has to do with the tendons in the neck contracting after death or something like that. Can anyone correct me on this?

Arrgh... nooooo, you made me look at the comic again by putting it in your quote...

it burns, it burns!

Though I do agree with you that the artist is quite talented.

Sounds like one of those anti-drug stories:

He would have gotten far in life, with his artistic talent, if he just said no to Hovind.
