I am truly AMAZED at the amount of ignorance and stupidity religion causes.

Flat, such as.

Good grief.

Everybody should know that the Earth is shaped like a burrito ;)

I'm gonna go with religion on this one.
The ONLY reason people doubt evolution is because it conflicts with their insane religious beliefs. It has nothing to do with lack of evidence

SherKhan: But it's entirely another thing to be willfully, even pridefully ignorant.

What a gaggle of dumbasses. Forget the chick who didn't know whether or not the earth was flat. Whoopi Goldberg can't articulate a thought. That vapid genetic mass of hair and fingernails, Elizabeth Hasselbeck, looked truly dumbfounded as she attempted to formulate some response that would align with her insanity. Joy Behar can be nothing but indignant and Barbara Walters has vagina drier than the Gobi.

Stupid, stupid tards.

Well, to be fair, she was probably trying to form her argument in a way that wouldn't confuse her obviously non-too-bright co-host and generally non-too-bright audience, while at the same time not making her absolute disgust and disdain for this woman's endless stupidity too obvious.

Have you ever tried having a discussion with a person like that? When you pose a rhetorical question like "do you think the earth is flat?" and you get back "I don't know" it can kind of throw you off, I've been in plenty of situations where I've just been at a loss for words and have had to try my best to stammer out some kind of non-offensive uncomplicated response.

Not defending Whoopi, just saying I've been there and it can be pretty difficult to form a competent argument when you're trying to explain yourself to someone with the mental capacity of a 1st grader.

Jesus never taught the disciples geography.

That is the problem.

Well, for an individual's immediate intents and purposes, the curvature is absolutely insignificant. Since we are always walking/driving along a vector that is an ever-changing tangent to the earth's surface, the force we need to exert (and the decisions we make) are virtually identical to if the world WERE truly flat.

You_mean_Im_gonna_stay_this_color: The ONLY reason people doubt evolution is because it conflicts with their insane religious beliefs.

I'd also suspect that a fair amount of Americans bristle at the thought that their original ancestors were African.

"And I go, baby, we gotta go to the libary".

Thank you God for creating stupid people for our amusement.

let me be one of many to say:

Wow. Just. Wow.

I liked the old New View better. They had more personality.



/what's that you say? my pic is rotsky'd?

maniacbastard: Besides eveyone knows the earth is hollow.

Much like her head.
