I know that the earth is flat because I can drive there. The moon, though. What a crock that is. Can you believe they want us to think somebody could actually fly to it? Hah. Amazing the CGI they had in the 60's though.

(disclaimer, I know somebody who believes what I said about the moon)

There is so much "WTF" going on in this picture. Why does it look like Lincoln should be saying "TA-DA!"? Who is the guy to the left of Jesus (his right) that looks like he has a bat? What the hell is that kid pointing at? Is that Putin in the foreground crying? The woman in the blue, holding the baby, on the steps, looks like she should be saying "What is this shit?"

WUT?!?!

Umm. Duh. Of course the earth is flat... How else would a level work...

(kidding)

1. Spherical

2. Numbers I can't count to.

3. Only in Jurrasic Park (those were real dinosaurs right)

4. And Elvis is still alive in Vegas and the moon is made from cheese (Organic not processed)

The Earth is obviously flat, this we all know. My grandpa had a pet dinosaur so this is also true. The Paul McCartney thing is ridiculous though. Proof the earth is flat and dinosaurs lived with people is just below.

My old boss believed hebrew people were the spawn of satan and that actual hebrew people referred to in the bible were white and said that his bible had a swastika on the cover and not to be thrown off by it.

It's interesting because apparently you can see the curvature of the Earth if you're high enough.

Technically, the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park were dinosaur-frog hybrids with possibly some ostrich DNA in there too, so no, they weren't actually true dinosaurs.

I have been in a spacecraft and can confirm from that instance.. our planet is definitely a 6000 year old imposter with a flat chest.

Yeah, it was nuts. He would hint around about it at work but would never go in depth while at work. Said if we wanted to know more we'd have to talk outside work. So one day me and a buddy were heading to waffle house for lunch and we invited him with us and he let the crazy out of the box.

I think in college once I got high enough to see the curvature of the earth but my altitude was only about 900 feet above sea level

#2 and # 3 didn't really become a thing again until about 1920-something. H ere's a reference from my favorite listicle website:

and its source material

FFS.

The worst part is that these people are influencing the educational system in the US — to the point that we're falling behind every other developed country in scientific literacy.

So I've tried to explain this to a few people that like to say they believe in science and religion. NO. They are mutually exclusive. If you believe in a god and especially if you subscribe to one of the organized religions the you obviously do not understand any basic science. I get how ignorance and lack of education and knowledge leads to religion, what I could never explain to myself is how some people that were actually relatively intelligent continued to believe in religion after receiving their education in the sciences. I guess they were just brought up that way and felt like staying in the "club." I've had a few religious friends admit that they, "don't REALLY believe in it." They just do it for the family traditions.

very good points made here. I am an athiest and fully agree. I actually give my sister a hard time because she doesn't believe in a God, yet forces her kid to go to church "because that was what we did when we were kids"

Ugh. I have a friend just like that. Doesn't believe but continues to follow the routine because both of their families are involved with the church. What kills me is that they don't explain that it is all fairy tales to the children. Basically willfully implanting ignorance at such a young age. Sad, really. I'm going to go so far and say that organized religion is the most deadly thing on the planet. More people have died over their religious beliefs than any other cause of death. The worst of course being violent and vehement sects like extremist muslims that believe anyone that doesn't believe their particular fairy tale should die.

since this post is pretty old now, I am going to call it as it is. People want to die for religion, fine. Natural selection and all :)

Now I need to fight the battle which is day care for my kiddos that is not church based or sketchy

DieHardDan > 505Turbeaux 08/28/2014 at 09:45

Oh trust me, I'm all for natural selection... I just hate when religious extremists end up blowing up us sane rational, science, logic, and reason based atheist type humans.

Regarding the day care, I can completely understand. If I didn't have built in atheist parent daycare at my house, I would insist on someone that either was atheist or worst case had the full understanding that they are not to mention god ever to my kid.

my kids take it with a grain of salt and realize they are fairy tales at least
