Quote# 1758

I guess I don't understand why you (collectively) find it so easy to believe that aliens suck people out of their homes aboard flying saucers for weird experiments yet cannot believe that God created the earth in six days.

The fuck? Martian anal probes are right up there with virgin births in my book.

When the aliens come, they'll either wipe us out before we even know they're there, or ask to speak to our leaders. Everything else is just a little silly. ;)

I'm sorry, I don't do alien abduction theories, who were you talking to?

Whenever I get a pain in the ass I don't know whether it's an alien probe or a fundie.

Uh, no, I don't swallow the alien stories either!

I admit to hearing some of that nonsense. Oh, the stuff about the UFOs, too. The same debit of credibility applies to both.

Actually, that IS slightly more feasible, but you really should consider what you're saying. It's doubtful you'll find many atheists who actually believe alien abduction. Case in point: 8 comments so far, 0 believers. Not sure if everyone's an atheist, but I stick to the excuse of being the Stereotypist From Hell.

Actually, I dont believe in alien abductions.

The Federation doesn't allow them, after all we are an experimental system to test that "feelings" thing.

Up to now, they aren't impressed.

don't worry tuco, as it turns out most reporets of alien abduction come from the Bible Belt.

Doesn't surprize me when you raise people to believe ridiculous things

Atheists believe in alien abductions automatically?

I do say, old chap, is this fact or a clever ruse?

Alien abductions are like demon attacks. Only seem to happen to people who believe it, and are usually claimed by people of a questionable grasp of reality.

And just when did I say that I, collectively or otherwise, believed that?

So, the logic here seems to be:

tuco22 doesn't believe in evolution or alien abduction. Therefore, anyone who believes in evolution must believe in alien abduction.

Nah, belief in alien abductions is about on a par with a belief in a literal interpretation of Genesis.

I'd prefer to think that aliens know better than to kidnap random people. Still, the idea of a race of extraterrestrials doing seems a helluva lot more feasible than your god existing.

In "Hidamari Sketch"...:



...even alien abduction is cute.

As for Genesis in the Bible, just two words: talking snake.

Then you wonder why we Atheists can't accept any of the Bible's bullshit?!

Six days? Why not six hours? Six minutes? Six seconds? Six nanoseconds, or less? And if your so-called 'God' could poof into existence an entire universe, world and all the life on it, why the fuck couldn't he have similarly just poofed Adam & Eve into being?!

Then you wonder why this quote exists:

'Properly read, the Bible is the most potent force for Atheism ever conceived'

-Isaac Asimov

Frankly, the scenario in the equally Atheist Arthur C. Clarke's "2001: A Space Odyssey"/"2010" is far more credible, re. a vast alien intelligence influencing life on Earth, evolving from tool-using apes, to space-exploring humans, right up to godlike beings, all via their enigmatic 'Monoliths'.

He/She is right. Flying saucerers are just as crazy as the creationists.

Believing there's life on other planets is an odds thing, on some Earth likish planets elsewhere the odds are good.

But most people don't believe in visitations or abductions and as i mentioned above the Bible belts the hotbed of such claims.

We don't; we find all myths to be just as incredible.
Next question, please.
