It is important to realize that the theory of evolution is not simply that man evolved from apes, but that man evolved from everything. According to Darwin, all living creatures have a common origin. Men, monkeys and bananas share the same ancestry. As such, when a man eats a banana he is engaging in a kind of cannibalism, consuming an ancestral version of his former self. Yet he consumes the banana so that he might survive. He feels no guilt about using the banana for his own benefit. He will not phone the authorities and report that a crime has been committed, in that he killed the banana and ate it.

On the flip side:
Believing in the Bible is just a way of disconnecting yourselves from the ancestral versions of your former selves, so that you can get away with eating bananas without feeling guilty about it because, in your mind, you're not really eating yourselves.
Makes just as much ass-backwards sense as the OP.
"It is important to realize that the theory of evolution is not simply that man evolved from apes"
Yesss...you are getting there... closer...
"but that man evolved from everything"
Not quite, but..
"According to Darwin, all living creatures have a common origin. Men, monkeys and bananas share the same ancestry. "
Thats the idea, Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees....

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!!!!
I love this bit later:
"THE OCCULT CONNECTION
The most disturbing fact about evolution is that its origins, while not scientific, are very spiritual in nature. Evolution is the very backbone of all the occult sciences, which even the most basic examination of esoteric philosophy will reveal. In his book, Occult Invasion, author Dave Hunt gives considerable attention to the implications of evolution’s real origins:"
"It is important to realize that the theory of evolution is not simply that man evolved from apes, but that man evolved from everything."
No. As usual, you people have gotten it backwards and twisted. Man didn't evolve from everything, everything evolved from a comman ancestor.
Not only according to Darwin, but, since the ToE itself has evolved in the last 150 years, almost every other biologist.
Not only do you have the ToE twisted in a knot, but you've also got no ability to think clearly, do you?

Incorrect. Evolutionary theory isn't a linear concept, something you have apparently failed to grasp. It doesn't go Amoeba=Banana=Monkey=Human, with that being made clear then you claim of human ancestry in the banana kingdom is fundamentally flawed. I suggest you phone the authorities to report the abuse of your brain through years of willful and criminal neglect.
So close to getting it, and then sooooo very very far away.
Is this some kind of curse that fundies have? The closes they get to grapsing a concept with one statement the more stupid then next.
Errrrr What do you think Holy Communion is ?
It's a ritualized form of cannibalism
Next time you take communion I suggest you just stick a banana wherever it fits best and be happy ;-)
Failing that if you see a person eating a banana ring the police and say "There is a Cannibal atheist eating a banana in public, you should arrest him !"
Make sure you give them your name and address so they can contact you afterwards.
All the Abrahamic religions believe all humankind are descended from a single man and woman. As such, when a man sleeps with a woman he is engaging in a kind of incest, fornicating with a distant relative of himself.
Evolution tells us that bananas not only lack the nervous system to care about being eaten, but are specifically developed by plants to be attractive and tasty to animals, so they act as mobile seed dispensers.
So, no guilt here.
and this disproves evolution how?
Bananas are not sentient, besides, fruit is supposed to be eaten, plants evolved fruit so that animals would eat the fruit and expel the indigestible seeds inside elsewhere. It's a method of spreading seeds.
the fact is the world survives on itself, eating and eating and eating its own. cannabalism however specifically refers to the eating of members of one's own species, not order, not phylum, not kingdom, but SPECIES. so no, eating fish, or fucking bananas at any rate, is not cannabalism. get it right numbnuts.
"Now attack me with the banana!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
When someone attacks you with a banana, that is when you release the TIGER!
"cannibalism"
Christianity.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
