Believe it or not, but here is proof that it's our - human's fault that Piranhas are so blood thursty and wicked.

Eve's sin made Piranhas vicious!

It is when I read stupidities like this that I weep for humanity...

Isn't this exactly what Sciotology is all about BTW? Mixing science with religion in an attempt to confuse people and think religion is the real answer to science?

Creationists are easy targets.

That site links to here where they say, "Prepare to travel back 6,000 years to the dawn of creation..."

I can't be bothered to argue about how retarded that is.

Good for a laugh until you realize that way too many people take it as truth.

Yes, but if you laugh at it and keep telling it as a joke - does it become a part of a common misconseption?

I mean, when people know something from a joke it can still stick in their mind as a "fact" they have heard...

There's a very idiotic example from Slovenia

There is a pastery called Prekmurska Gibanica.
Prekmurje is a region of Slovenia and it simply means a part of the country which is over the river Mura. OK... Gibanica is a form of a cake, which iz made by layering differen things together, but "gibat" in the literal sence would mean moving.

So as a joke they "translated" it into over-Mura-moving-cake. But really just as a joke.
Yet in a recent schoolbook from authors from a differnt region of Slovenia, this was already put in as a cultural fact, as though this would be an official translation.

So... maybe making fun isn't the best way... yet I posted that link anyway as I though it hillarius and had to share it with people who won't mistake it for something else then absolute stupidity :thumbs:

Well, I don't find it funny at all. It is quite the opposite.

I am way to much science minded to find something which could mislead thousand of people away from the truth as "funny"... Just thinking about it get me down...

[Tulac]

This text reminds me of how they explained the world in medieval times. You know the whole Earth being on a back of a turtle type of explaining things.

[DoomYoshi]

How would the creationists explain Yoshis? Are we the result of human sins? Piranha sins? Piranha plant sins?

[dosraider]

Yoshi are created from piranha turds.
:tongue:

[Lulu_Jane]

Yeah, I agree Tulac. It's backwards. They start with a conclusion and then look for evidence to support it.

Science does not work that way.
