Do you believe in evolution? If you do, is it not the height of arrogance to assume that man whom has been around for however many million years that you postulate can affect something you postulate that has been around for billions of years?

Yeah, just like viruses that have only been around for a few months can't possibly have any effect on creatures that have been around millions of years!
(and typically the older a disease strain becomes, the more benign it becomes, since killing a host is evolutionarily disadvantageous, so the brand new ones are typically always the biggest threat)
"...that man whom has been around for however many million years..."
Try a few tens of thousands, if I recall correctly. We. Have. Not. Been. Around. Since. The beginning! Now who's being arrogant?
Just realize, at the least, we are parasites of the planet and we've gotten Nuclear Bomb good at it.
Waking up yet?
Because as bad as twenty Nuclear Bombs can be we for some fucking insane reason have hundreds.
Waking up yet?
Fuck the Nuclear waste then, and the bombs, we have coal factories pounding carbon into the air at VERY unnatural levels, we are polluting rivers at an astounding rate, we are pounding chemicals into the ground to force unnatural reactions.
I'm no tree hugger, despite having hippy values I understand the need the population has put on the Earth and we need it's resources.
But we can be WAY smarter about it and the exploiters
“Do you believe in evolution?”
i ACCEPT evolution because scientists can show me the evidence for it.
“If you do, is it not the height of arrogance to assume that man whom has been around for however many million years that you postulate can affect something you postulate that has been around for billions of years?”
1st of all Mount Rushmore. Stone Mountain. Suez Canal. Panama Canal. No, it’s not arrogance if it’s demonstrable that we don’t need to be older than something in order to affect it.
2nd of all, I accept climate change because, you know, scientists, evidence.
Sorry, but your sliver bullet to defeat Climate Change is more of a butt plug. I’m sure it feels good to you, but when you pull it out of your ass and wave it around, it’s just shitty.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
