– INTERCEPTED SKEPTICS COMMUNIQUE –
Fellow Skeptics, we remain intellectually superior to those lowly creationists. We are so superior that we have only studied evolution. Let us collectively pat ourselves on the back for having reached this evolved pinnacle of wisdom and understanding. Without investigating the claims of those lowly creationists we can proudly proclaim their error. There is one thing that remains though, where on Earth are they HIDING those creationist scientific evidences! That is the only minor thing that we have not yet been able to figure out! But all else is clearly known to us. Keep marching forward towards that spiritual cliff ahead. Feel proud. And when you are in front, take a deep breath, and gaze at the beautiful view. And keep marching even as you fall off and tumble through the air. So invigorating. Now let us recite the Skeptics Creed:
“I am a skeptic. All that is answers to my understanding or else it does not exist. I am too strong to admit weakness, particularly spiritually. I deny the role of The Scientific Mathematician who created and sustains the universe. Instead I contend that the trillions of known stars and the magnificience of abundant interlocking scientific laws of motion, preservation, heat, sophisticated chemical and biological interactions ALL exploded from nothingness into chance existence for no reason. There is thus no purpose to life.

Except for the purpose that you yourself create to make your life (and the lives of others you surround yourself with) meaningful.
Of course,it might just be that you're too afraid to let go of a book that forces you to follow a set of nonsensical and dangerous rules.
INTERCEPTED CREATIONIST COMMUNIQUE
"Hey, Darlene-Lou? Tell us agin hows you configurize this dang-blasted cow-moon-eye-kay-shun dee-vice?
I've gits the speaking rod aginst ma head the right'n way round this time, I knows it! But when I mash the funny squiggles on the front likes ya showed me I kin't seem to get th' pastor on t'other end?!"
Let's just say I'm skeptical!!! What a dolt! Hey pablamson, why couldn't the Scieintific Mathematician help your founder with his taxes? Oh that's right, because God doesn't approve of liars(who swear to tell the truth on HIS Bible, then lie like a dog in court) and tax-cheating crooks who steal from honest tax-payers and scam gullible clowns using his name.
" INTERCEPTED SKEPTICS COMMUNIQUE
Fellow Skeptics, we remain intellectually superior to those lowly creationists, not that it's our fault. They make it too damn easy . We are so superior that we have only studied evolution because we had creation shoved down our throats as a kid and it doesn't work -- like aversive therapy, huh? . Let us collectively pat ourselves on the back for having reached this evolved pinnacle of wisdom and understanding.Are we sure we can't give Darwin a posthumous Nobel? Or at least Rosalind Franklin? Without investigating the claims of those lowly creationists we can proudly proclaim their error; we have the fossils, we win. There is one thing that remains though, where on Earth are they HIDING those creationist scientific evidences! Seriously, I'd love to know. I get tired of hearing the same old shit. That is the only minor thing that we have not yet been able to figure out! But all else is clearly known to us, or can be with enough digging. Keep marching, fundies, forward towards that spiritual cliff ahead. Feel proud. And when you are in front, take a deep breath, and gaze at the beautiful view that is so endlessly wasted on mind-neutered numbnuts such as yourselves . And keep marching even as you fall off and tumble through the air. So invigorating. And it'll get you out of our hair for good. Or you could stop marching and pick up a fucking book once in a while. You could become one of us. But those of you who would will anyway, or already have. Now let us recite the Skeptics Creed:
“I am a skeptic. All that is answers to my understanding or else it does not exist. (Damn straight!) I am too strong to admit weakness, particularly spiritually. (We just threw that in to tick off the loonies...) I deny the role of The Scientific Mathematician who created and sustains the universe. Instead I contend that the trillions of known stars and the magnificience of abundant interlocking scientific laws of motion, preservation, heat, sophisticated chemical and biological interactions ALL exploded from nothingness into chance existence for no reason. There is thus no purpose to life, so we make our own and live better than the people afraid of an imaginary God. "
Don't you hate it when they even misquote their imaginary strawmen?
Actually, we HAVE investigated your claims. It's just that everything you've got on Intelligent Design is either unprovable speculation, long-debunked myth, or outright lie.
Oh shit! They've broken the code. Switch to the Ath666² cypher.
P.S. We've found their evidences! They are presented below in their entirety (encoded, of course).
Tbqqvqvg.
That's funny. I've often considered myself Christian (moderate, mind you) and skeptic at the same time. I didn't know those two things were mutually exclusive. =\
EDIT:
I think this deserves the "Lying for Jesus" award.
" INTERCEPTED FUNDIE COMMUNIQUE
Fellow fundies, we remain morally superior to those lowly heathens. We are so superior that we don't understand evolution. Let us collectively pat ourselves on the back for having reached this exalted state of savedness. Without understanding the claims of those lowly athieists we can proudly proclaim their error. There is one thing that remains though, where on Earth are they HIDING those evolutionist conspiracy evidences! That is the only minor thing that we have not yet been able to figure out! But all else is clearly known to us. Keep marching forward towards that cliff ahead. Feel proud. And when you are in front, take a deep breath, and know that gravity is only a theory. And keep marching even as you fall off and tumble through the air. So invigorating. Now let us recite the Fundie Creed:
“I am a fundie. All that is answers to my understanding or else it does not exist. I am too strong to admit weakness, particularly spiritually. I deny the role of observable reality which informs us of the universe. Instead I contend that the trillions of known stars and the magnificience of abundant interlocking scientific laws of motion, preservation, heat, sophisticated chemical and biological interactions ALL exploded into nothingness when they contradict my myth. There is thus no purpose to facts "
Fixed.
[insert eyeroll here]
How pathetic does one have to be to make up something like this?
As if anyone would believe that was "intercepted" and not just made up as a hackneyed strawman.
Get some new material, please.
Purpose in life is what you make of it.
Also, don't try to lump the Big Bang theory with theory of evolution.
Oh and what is this "spiritual cliff" metaphor?
This must be one of the most obvious trolls ever.
This person needs to look up the meaning of the word skeptic. It means quite the opposite of what s/he implies.
A skeptic questions EVERYTHING, until it has been satisfactorily proven beyond reasonable doubt, through experiments and peer-reviewing.
The "claims of those lowly creationists" are investigated all the time, that's the problem. Those claims have no substance, no evidence to back them up. And though it has been asked for time and time again, no evidence has ever been put forth for creationism, only empty words.
The purpose to life is to live, to make the life of others worth living.
"where on Earth are they HIDING those creationist scientific evidences"
No worry for you, you don't have to hide nothing as it's nothing, you have no evidence against evolution or for any of your religion.Science provides evidence, creationists deny it. You demand absolute proof but argue that you need to prove nothing as proof is worthless to you.
Typical Hovind approach.
Man, if this guy isn't a troll, then people like him give atheists a bad name.
Though this guy is an obvious troll though.
No one knows if the universe "exploded out of nothingness"
The Big Bang could have been a result of a cyclical universe.
Hey, we did SO investigate the creationist side, and we found it ludicrous...
wait, something's not right here...not right at all....
That isn't the Skeptics' Creed! The Skeptics' Creed goes...um...I forget. Something about a superstitious and cowardly lot or something...
I'm very skeptical about this skeptic's communique.
I think I was taught the Bible creation story first and then the Evolutionary theory.
I don't think I ever mixed them up; one was allegory, a story, the other was scientific fact.
Mum and dad read many books for us when we were small, both fairy tales and tales of real persons, and we learned at an early age to separate those two.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
