Why do people laugh at creationists? (part 30)

by Tom Drary on August 14, 2010


Following Casey Luskins flapping on the video Challenging the Discovery Institute to Discover, Luskin has earned himself the honor of being the subject of Why do people laugh at creationists Part 30. The Discovery Institute has all but abandoned intelligent design (the rebranding of creationism- see video) as a lost cause, they even go on record saying they dont think it should be taught in schools! They initially set up a peer review journal of their own (Progress in Complexity, Information, and Design) but abandoned it after they got called out on the lineage of intelligent design to creationism. Luskin helped set up intelligent design and evolution awareness clubs, but stated that the management believed the designer was the God of the Bible, and then happily goes on camera and states that intelligent design has nothing to do with religion, despite all the diagrams he has connecting the two on the IDEA webpage. What really astounds me about these guys is they have utterly lost, and yet they dont have the dignity to accept that they were wrong graciously. Instead all you get is a bunch of bitter misfits doing their best to sow disinformation and throw as much mud as possible but for what gain? All I see is a bunch of jerks committing spiteful intellectual vandalism for their personal gratification. Really what do these people hope to gain by pretending there is controversy where none exists?

I’d like to know…

Is it justified that people call the US of A “Jesusland” ?

I saw some map illustrating West coast states and New york and parts of Illinois as “Civilization”, and the rest of continental US as “Jesusland”.

I’d like to see an actual statistic on the number of, well not Christians, as some could happen to be smart and limit the Bible to the spiritual realm, but actual Creationists.

Tl:dr; I’d like to see statistics on Creationists in the US, is anyone has a vid or study.

@Bernstein1917 i get the impression from alot of vids that there trying to convert people..im away from religion well on the fence anyway and thats the way i want it. you cant tell me theres people out there who would take advantage of weak people questioning there faith. but i agree with you so dont feed me to the lions lol

@n8tivguitar Actually, since Thunderf00t’s argument is based upon the scientific method, which abhors the idea of dogma and requires constant efforts to disprove hypotheses, it is in no way similar to religion, which holds that dogma is absolute and abhors any effort to disprove it.

youtube is turning atheism in to another religion…wheres the money tray.
i like your videos but your basicly a preacher

@mendezfocus Buddists and Hindus, to my knowledge, don’t go around undermining scientific discovery and knowledge of the universe and its workings in favor for a mythology. There are some Muslim groups that Thunderf00t has spoken against; you can find those videos on his channel. The only reason why Christians are more common in his videos and others like him is because they are more vocal. Anyone spreading falsehoods about scientific understanding of the universe should be called out.

Creation science is an oxymoron.
