Your proof that God exists is the Banana? Its a fruit which was first domesticated thousands of years ago and has been bred to taste good, be easy to eat, and be easy to harvest. What is your next "proof," Labrador retrievers are friendly, therefore God exists?

Yikes. Funny how the banana thing comes up every few months.

Picture of some wild bananas:

It's just a pity he didn't get into about how bananas are widespread fruit, growable in any climate with a minimum of rainfall and care. Oops. They aren't, are they? Ah well.

He also didn't get into the fact that the seeds are very tiny so that animals will eat them instead of eating around them and crap them out elsewhere. Which is useless for humans since we don't just poop anywhere and leave it there for long enough to have a tree grow out of it.

LOL....Haven't been around that much the last few months, so didn't recognize the name. Poe's law does come in to effect though-- some times you just can't tell the difference.

I guess coconuts must have been developed by Satan.

Thought the following quote from my favourite author was particularly appropriate. :)

Cryptonomicon said:
...that nuts are the genitalia of trees is never more obvious than when you are looking at a cluster of swelling young coconuts nestled in the hairy dark groin of a palm tree. It’s surprising that the Spanish missionaries didn’t have the whole species eradicated.

Which, of course, explains the Durian... a delicacy in the Pacific Rim. (did I mention you're not allowed to bring these on airplanes or the subway in Singapore because they smell like old wet sweatsocks?)

Personally, I believe that bananas are proof that no god exists.

Banana's are very possibly the best tasting fruit ever, they fit perfectly in the human hand, have a bio-degradable, non stick, perferated wrapping, fit nicely into the pockets on the back of a cyclists jersey BUT come in bushels of about 7 and go bad in roughly 2 1/2 minutes. So, if you aren't going to eat them immediately they all turn black... at once, no less.

Either banana's are sure proof that there is no god or they are proof that s/he is twisted and mean.

Eh. You're unlikely to win any awards for outstanding journalism if you a.) choose a target as easy as Westboro Baptist, who are so crazy they make the Ann Coulter-hugging folks at Fox look like moderates - which was, I have to suspect, the point - and b.) allow the segment to degenerate into a shouting match.

Oh it wasnt outstanding journalism. I just liked how they actually expressed an opinion. We dont see that in UK.

Which papers are you reading? Some of them have very strong opinions on things. I don't know about news reports, I haven't tuned in my TV since the Afganistan incident.
