Nope, the wrapper is biodegradable, you heathen.
Aren’t bananas native to Central America? And, if so, why would God place the perfect food an ocean away from his chosen people?
That’s not for us to know.
That’s the other thing that really binks my dinky; these folks will give you a long, rambling monologue about how this wondrous, logical thing (in this case, the banana) just makes perfect sense of their worldview, but when you pick fault, suddenly, things don’t have to be logical or make sense anymore, and you’re an ignoramus for expecting them to.
And surely he’s seen/read the refutation of the Watchmaker argument by now (it’s all over the Internet). Why not post a refutation to the refutation that’s more than “nuh-uh!”? That would be a real service to Christendom.
I wonder does Brother Kirk really think that he’s reaching anybody who isn’t already converted? His whole ministry, web-site (which I have to say is functionally and technically well done- content’s another matter), etc., just all seems so bloody masturbatory, a “well I’ve done my part” thing.
I would also wager that Kirk, while probably not living in a Beverly Hillbilllies style palatial estate, probably does live in an upscale area of L.A… I wonder how he would respond to the “sell what you have an extra one of and give the money to the poor”, “camel through the eye of the needle” and “root of all evil” type statements of Christianity.
What are you talking about? Central America isn’t an ocean away from Kansas!
I can actually provide you the stock answers to those questions, if you really want to know.
I wonder what would happen if you locked Kirk Cameron and Tom Cruise in a room together?
If only you could find a way to tap that energy and convert it to electricity…
Please. (I’m guessing the word “symbolism” is involved.)
Bow chicka bow bow, followed by vehement denials from squads of publicists.
the banana had no comment
Was that the safety word?
Actually I’ve heard an annoyingly literal interpretation of the “eye of the needle”. You see, it’s not about a real needle, the eye of the needle was the small door built into a city wall that and individual would go through as opposed to the main gate. They weren’t built for camels loaded down with possesions to get through. Ok. Fair enough. I could actually buy that. And it doesn’t seem out of keeping with the message that’s repeated a lot in the New Testament; that material possessions can be a burden, which will interfer with your realtionship with God and make it harder to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. But apparently the real point of this story is that a camel could go through an eye of a needle if he really tried…so hey don’t worry about it!!
The other theory is that sure a camel can’t normally go through the eye of a needle but …all things are possible with God!!! and that’s the real point. Nothing to do with possessions at all.
As for the root of all evil they will point out the it’s the love of money that is the root of all evil, as long as I don’t love it (and of course I don’t…not as much as I love Jesus!) I can have as much of it as I want. (You on the other hand might have a problem…perhaps you should send yours to me.)
Kirk’s star-studded premiere at Wal-Mart.
snort I’ll bet Leonardo’s laughing his ass off.
I thought what they did that passed for reason and logic was interesting. I can only hope they stop me on the street one day and do a video intereview.
One thing that did interest me was the cirlce of complete knowledge vs. what we actually know. I thought that was a legit point. How bout you?
Problem is they used a pie chart, indicating that complete knowledge vs. what we actually know, where known quantities.
Doesn’t what we know = complete knowledge?
IE, I didn’t know, what I didn’t know, until I knew it.
Then to claim that we might be able to prove the existence of god from that unknown knowledge, without acknowledging that the opposite is equally true.
I’ve only suffered through two of the videos but the evolution vid is just as bad. They make a big deal about evolutionists using weasel words, (maybe, I guess, as far as I know, etc.) and back it up with “man on the street” interviews. Why ask an scientist, who could make the science clear, when you can just ask undereducated people who can’t.
Then try to prove we didn’t evolve by making phony phone calls to airline ticket agents!
If an orangutan can’t get a seat in first class, then clearly Darwin is wrong! :dubious:
The virtues of a banana from Kirk’s site:
8 Has a point at top for ease of entry
I don’t think they’re using them correctly, then. It’s not a cigar, afterall.
Too-shay, andros

New from KIRK CAMERON and DAN BROWN: THE DAIRY QUEEN CODE
“Israel was the land of milk and honey. Honey is sweet and ice cream is made of milk.”
“But where does the banana on the split fit in?”
“I am so glad you asked… allow me to exposit.”
I suspect that an explaination of Gödel’s Incompleteness Theorem would be lost on Kirk Cameron.
