So why don't you think Darwin was hallucinating on the Galapagos Islands?
You think John hallucinated on the Island of Patmos, so why not Darwin? I wasn't there, you weren't there. All we have is a book.
I'm sure mushrooms were plentiful. ^_^

Umm, can't you go to the Galapagos today and see the same stuff Darwin did?
Reproducibility. Science has it, religion doesn't.
You use japanese smiley? OFF TO HELL WITH YOU!
Seriously, "Christian fundie animetard" is painful to think of.
Maybe one day you´ll understand that, in contrast to the stories of he bible, scientific theories aren´t just dependent on the credibility of the author/s, but instead have to be backed up by evidence and should be reproducible by other scientists.
So attacking Darwin doesn´t solve anything towards your goal of making the ToE appear unreliable ;)
All we have is a book.
Yeah, and the evidence that backs up evolution.
Anything Darwin did or said is irrelevant to evolution, because it turns out it was true, and we have the fossils to back it up.
Because Darwin's book is clear, insightful, and backed up by mountains of evidence, while John's is full of totally insane shit?
What is this obsession with Darwin? Do they seriously think the whole science of evolution rests on anything Darwin did or said? That most theories that he propounded were not long since replaced by better, more accurate theories? Even the religious conspiracy theorists consider him a major lynchpin in the angel-human or fish-human, Bildeberg and CFR founding, evil bloodlines. Apparently, his grandfather founded the CIA, his uncle founded a propaganda research college, his other brother Darryl sold opium to the Chinese. And they were so immoral they were inbreeding and he was his mother's uncle, etc. So implying that he was a devout practitioner of sorcery and turned salamanders into newts is not that unusual I guess.
Assuming John wrote Revelation, I think John was mental unstable, mentally challenged AND hallucinating. I see you haven't read much of Revelation yourself.
P.S. Actually, we have a book by John and 2 by Darwin, plus other Darwin writings. Haven't read Darwin's books either, have you?
All we have is a book.
Uh.
Except, you know, for the thousands of other books.
Which actually agree with each other.
Your book doesn't even agree with itself...
"I wasn't there, you weren't there. All we have is a book."
Oh, you're talking about the Bible, right?
Because we can go to Galapagos Islands, right now, and see the exact same things Darwin says he saw, no drugs, totally sober.
I don't think I'll ever experience Gawd without the aid of some high-powered blotter sheets.
Darwin hallucinated, what, the variability of island finches? That's the most boring hallucination I've ever heard of.
Not to mention that even if Darwin hadn't come up with evolutionary theory, someone else would have. At least one person is known to have done so...
Revelation is like the ramblings of my partner's dear mother in the last stages of Alzheimers, bless her.
She did't have a secretary to write down what she said, but undoubtedly in her poor mind she was having visions - she was very disturbed.
"All we have is a book. "
And the samples Darwin brought back, and the Galapagos islands, and the subsequent 150 years of biology which is in complete agreement with the ideas Darwin realized.
umm..because what Darwin said has been observed and fits the criteria for scientific methods.
John talked about a man who talked alot of trash, magically healed sick people, got killed, rose from the dead, and then flew up into the clouds like he had a rocket shoved up his ass.
Fine. Darwin might have been hallucinating. And every scientist can't graduate University until they've farmed the proper amount of shrooms. Its a miracle that they can discover or invent anything! As for the evidence, just creative crack statues and acid drops.
Since John mostly stuck with imagery, he's a total party poop.
We don't think Darwin was hallucinating because you can GO TO THE GALOPAGOS AND SEE IT ALL FOR YOUR OWN DAMN SELF. There's a difference between the claim that a nineteenth century man of science investigating natural processes hallucinated and the claim that a first century prisoner hallucinated, you Abrahamic dicktard.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
