Remember the old gag cans of peanut brittle with the fake snakes that come springing out? Man, I wish I could have been a stagehand on that set.

That’s *exactly *what I was hoping to see when he took the lid off the jar!
You know, it’s funny that they only zeroed in on peanut butter. There’s been *plenty *of times that I’ve opened a jar of **jelly **from the store and it had something growing in there.
Did he really fucking say that? (referring to the nitwit in the video clip).
Besides…here’s peanut butter and new life. That wasn’t so hard to find.

Oh come on… how did that kid even fit inside the jar? Things I Learned Today: Covering an infant’s face with peanut butter somehow makes its wide-eyed grin INCREDIBLY SCARY.
It’s obvious that the infant started as a single cell, and grew inside the jar until they got too big to fit. Then, well, I think the picture does a fairly decent job of showing what happened next.
Oh, and it helps that that’s a new fangled fast growing infant…Just add peanut butter!

Why are the morons all on my side?!? [/Christian]

Because, my dear, we are required to be on their side. Atheists, and those who are willing to exclude others from the Love of God don’t have to accept morons on their “team.” We do.
(too bad evolution says nothing about the creation of life, otherwise this might not be quite so ridiculous. Still ridiculous, but not quite so ridiculous)

Of course this completely ignores the fact that commercial bananas were bred by man. By the way, the guy on the right is Kirk Cameron.

There’s a follow-up video to that in which a different commentator disproves God’s existence (or at least the existence of a benevolent God) using onions and pineapples. Its sense of humor is a little too dry for me, not something I’m used to saying, but I like the concept.
When you want to be convinced of something, even the stupidest theories are pretty convincing
I’m just wondering why the thread title made me think of George Washington Carver giving a lecture on creationism (and yes, I’m aware that he didn’t actually invent modern peanut butter).

Yeah, I’ve seen it, good stuff.
Peanut butter and bananas are delicious together. Coincidence? Or proof of the Flying Spaghetti Monster somehow! The anti-FSMer’s worst nightmare!
Bananas disprove evolution

I can’t figure out if that is serious or a spoof. And in case you think I am too easily whooshed, I have a collection of Jesus books by authors like Dr. Harry Rimmer of the Moody Bible Institute with very serious arguments that closely parallel the banana boys.

So which is it?

I can confirm that Cameron is very active in the church, my aunt works at a large church in NC that had some sort of dealings with him. I think it’s VERY unlikely that he’d spoof any kind of creationist argument.
I think this video was put out by the Skippy Corporation to ensure creationists that they aren’t destroying potential new life forms by opening their jar of peanut butter. Because most creationists are pro-life and if evolution were true then opening a jar of peanut butter would be a sin. So Christians would be faced with the dilemma of choosing between eternal damnation or eating marshmallow fluff.

Yea, if it’s Kirk Cameron then it’s almost certainly sincere.

I’ve solved it. If you look carefully, that jar of peanut butter has already been opened. He just let the life out before recording the spot.
+1 for FilmGeek.
