Who you gonna trust, your own eyes or a 6000 year old sumerian creation myth?
I actually used this line on a fundie, he shut up and didn't want to talk to me after that.
Man mates, censoredforsex admitted it was a POE:

I was making a fucking joke dude, get the sand put of you vagina. I am a fuckin atheist myself.
Soon as God says his story...and I do mean GOD, and not his lackeys, who can't seem to agree on much of anything he allegedly says, I'll think about that. 'Til then, I'll trust the "Liberal" media.
The (so-called) Liberal Media exist. The existence of a god is moot... Go figure.
That said, I doubt if there is actual textual material that is 6,000 years old. The Egyptian First Dynasty is reckoned to have begun about 3,000 BCE. Writing was being developed before that, but not by too long.
Well, now see... the media exists.
So that's like a HUGE bonus for their credibility right there.
Edit: Fuck it's a Poe.
I was so excited too.
It's more a case of the Bible or the media. Frankly, I like my information to be up to date.
Imagine if the Bible did news...flood warnings would be a little out of date.
'Who are you gonna trust, GOD or the liberal media??'
I'm sure as hell not gonna trust YOU, fuckwit.
The "liberal media" had nothing to do with the HISTORICAL PROOF that Egypt has been around for 6,000 years.
In fact, CENSOREDFORXEX, I'll do you one better, the city of Damascus is the world's oldest city, dating back over 9,000 years.
"Who are you gonna trust, GOD or the liberal media??
"
Neither one exists.
I trust the archaeologists.
Since my job of well over 50 years is translating these texts and hieroglyphics, GOD is absolutely NOT to be trusted.
As for the media, there is NO American media to be trusted except a few independant and unbiased stations.
Your problem is that the expotentially rising amount of VALID evidence well and truly pisses on your rhetorical one-liner.
Well, I'm not trusting the guy who claims to deceive people so he can damn them to eternal torture. (Thessalonians 2:11 and Romans 11:7-10)
The Bible, bitch. Read it.
Dude, come to Hungary. Many people here stubbornly believe that the Old Hungarian alphabet (a kind of runiform script) is 40,000 (you read that right, forty-thousand!) years old. Which is kind of wild, but still not as crazy as thinking that the world is 6,000 years old.
(Oh, and these people would like to have a word with you... All of you.)
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
