But if you want to see these depths of inanity, just try going to a forum for pretty much any online dating site. It is ugly, but it can be amusing to see how insane people are in such forums. I highly recommend the forums of Datehookup.com if you are looking for high-octane stupidity in matters of politics and religion, for instance. Interestingly, I don't even use these sites for dating anymore, and just lurk in the forums to marvel at the ridiculous things that are said, all too often in earnest seriousness.

what’s funny is that most of the best lines in this piece had already been written for me, in total sincerity, by believers who thought this crap was true.

Honestly, I didn't add much to what many theists already maintain about those who support evolution, aside from the stuff about funny hats.

While we're on the subject, where do I go to get a Church of Evolution hat? :D *is laughing so hard right now*
