Intelligent Design

I'm really sick of this so-called debate. I got into it with one of these Intelligent Design nutbags yesterday and we argued for three hours until I finally broke down and yelled, "IKEA SUCKS!" That's what happens when you get into an argument with someone whose opinion won't change. It's a lose/lose situation.

Three hours was way to much time to waste...

Next time just agree and say that it was probably Space Aliens that seeded earth with life to see how long it took for us to kill each other over how life was created.

Come on !
Next time make it a win/lose situation.
Keep cool and enjoy the other one trying to explain the inexplicable ;-)

If God designed everything, isn't God intelligent enough to design things in a more sophisticated way than you give God credit for. Or do you think God is a retard?

You call this intelligent? I hope the earth is still under warranty because I want a refund. He doesn't even have the continents where he wanted them and now he has to move them around to fix it.

I think God has ADD.

A lot of people have this crazy notion that we know more about the past than the people who were there.

I think this sentence points out why it makes a difference. We don't have enough people who were around at the time of creation to tell us what really happened. Until we can find some more somewhere, we ought to stick to what we can figure out using science.
I guess we could decide things by fighting wars, punching each other in the arm, or going "Eeny Meeny Miny Mo," but logic and reason usually spills less blood.

Ummm, I was talking about whether Ikea was intelligently designed or not. How God entered this thread is beyond me.

Try mentioning in passing to someone that Apple sucks only to find out they are an iPerson. They're worse than Ikea heads, Pottery Barners, Pier One'ees and Jehova's Witnesses. Combined even!

I agree, Ikea sucks.

Isn't the debate between those who believe in evolution and those who believe in IKEA?
