Who wants to pretend they are an evolutionist and give a good argument against YEC?

I can't seem to get a good argument going in the OT forum. (Yes you can!)

 

[shernren]

Oy ve! First you guys ban real evolutionists from debating in this subforum and now you want fake evolutionists to debate you.

 

[Tinker Grey]

No they don't!

 

[elcapitan]

No they don't!

<sigh>
Do I really have to do this?

Do you need more proof?

I think Tinker Grey was just getting into the spirit of the sketch.

Umm, I make it a point not to watch YouTube. 7c/MB + YouTube = unnecessary costs. Therefore, if there was something in the video which was fundamentally necessary to understanding busterdog's post, rest assured that I have almost certainly misunderstood it.

(A point that takes 20MB to make is not worth my time unless you can rephrase it YouSing - sorry, using a few KB of text.)

shernren,

It's a comedy sketch from Monty Python.

Here's the transcript: http://www.ibras.dk/montypython/episode29.htm#11

It's the part associated with Mr Vibrating.

Well, um, creationism is wrong!

Because it violates the - wait for it - Third Law of Thermodynamics!

According to creationism, before the universe was created, there was nothing at all in existence.

But that would have meant that a temperature of absolute zero was physically achieved.

Which violates the Third Law of Thermodynamics!

Eat that!!!1!1!UN!1!ELEVENTYONE1!!

 

[busterdog]

No they don't!

Ha ha!

 

[crawfish]

That skit is great!

Can I argue in this thread if I pretend to be a creationist pretending to be an evolutionist?

I already told you once!

 

[shernren]

Well, then, I'm an evolutionist pretending to be a creationist pretending to be an evolutionist! Hah!

Beat that!ONE!ELEVEN!ELEVENTYONE!!

Guess you got us there.

Nigel Tufnel: The numbers all go to 11. Look. Right across the board. Eleven, eleven, eleven...
Marty DiBergi: Oh, I see. And mostly amps go up to 10?
Nigel: Exactly.
Marty: Does that mean it's louder? Is it any louder?
Nigel: Well, it's one louder, isn't it?

According to creationism, before the universe was created, there was nothing at all in existence.

But that would have meant that a temperature of absolute zero was physically achieved.

Temperature is the movement of atoms. If there are none there is no temperature.

 

[shernren]

Temperature is the movement of atoms. If there are none there is no temperature.

Eck-freaking-zactly. Therefore, creationism is wrong. Q-F-ED.

 

[holdon]

Eck-freaking-zactly. Therefore, creationism is wrong. Q-F-ED.

I don't see a reason to accept that conclusion.

One of my favorites in terms of physical comedy.
