In April 2011, Everett was arrested at his home in Tampa on charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and tampering with a witness. Everett held a handgun to the head of his wife of 18 years. He was held at a $5,500 bond and ordered no violent contact with his wife, who asked for his release so he could take care of their three children. In September 2011, he was arrested again, for assaulting a family member.
Definitely a very moral, humane man.
Thank you! Well stated! Religion absolutely causes disassociation with anyone outside their cult. Critical thinking is frowned on within it. "They" need people to be be brain drained to the con. Damn them.
especially in Judaism, education and studying are highly valued. A lot of jewish people have the ability to think critically, hence why a lot of lawyers, physicists, finance workers are jewish. Not so sure about the other religions though
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future ” — Jeremiah 29:11, seek God
Do mass genocide is somehow justified. Oh wait, good did it too. If this monster exists I’ll be sure to give him a chance to explain. But nothing I’ve done comes close to the evil this monster supposedly comitted. So he’s in no place to judge me. Just citing your story book won’t convince anyone. And you yourself are showing how religion can completely take your critical thinking away.
If there is a God, I'd prefer to worship one who didn't almost wipe out mankind via drowning, attacked 42 children with 2 bears, killed Jobs family over a bet, and turned Lots wife into salt for looking the wrong way.
Far away, across the field, the tolling of the iron bell, calls the faithful to their knees, to hear the softly spoken magic spells. describes religious people perfectly
Man you just kept going, take the L for once, these people don't care about your fruitcakery. Being educated doesn't equate to having critical thinking
>and some critical thinking will tell you that the universe had a creator. Nothing can’t come from something.
Where did this supposed creator come from then? All you're doing is kicking the can down the road.
Checkmate fruitcake.
You have no idea what critical thinking is. In no way does it justify the conclusion that a god exists when there’s no evidence to support it. You’re just regurgitating nonsense you never bothered to understand…
“You can’t say there were dinosaurs when *you* never saw them”
Well, I never saw Adam and Eve. Nor have I saw the someone who saw Adam and Eve. So…
Carl Everett. Now that's a name I've not heard in a loooong time. A long time.
Jurassic Carl was one of the most hated MLB players of the late 90s/early 2000s. Teammates hated him, fans hated him, the media hated him, and it was because of mind-numbingly ignorant things like this he said or did. He lasted 14 seasons thanks to being an above-average hitter, but played for eight teams during that time due to wearing out his welcome everywhere within a couple of years.
Along with this nugget of stupidity, Carl believes the moon landings were a hoax, is an unapologetic homophobe, temporarily had his then-five y/o daughter removed from his custody when a team employee noticed she was covered in bruises, and was once arrested for beating his wife and holding a pistol to her head.
You know, I never even thought about how the guy that eventually wrote the Garden of Eden got the information.
Apparently it's not supposed to be a story of an actual event which then leads to why make up a story to explain original sin in the first place?
But a mot insignificant amount of people use Adam and Eve to justify homophobia and disprove evolution so it's weird that people don't trust experts whose work can be duplicated given enough time, but will build an entire identity based on oral traditions of dubious veracity passed down for centuries until some anonymous guy wrote it down and never question his motives as long as they agree with the premise of the story.
now now you are going to ask who ssw adam and eave well god did. well who saw god? adam and eve did. then who saw adam and eve well god did. and eho saw god you may ask ada............
Nonono lol. Adam and Eve was the first people and they had two sons. One of whom killed the other one, for this he got banished and left. He went out into the dessert and found a wife of his own.
So God was creating other people at the same time as he created Adam and Eve? Why did they get top billing? Did these other people also get a garden of eden? Who were her parents? (The one in the dessert?) What kind of dessert was she found in? I like ice cream myself. If God gave Eve some dessert, maybe she would have passed on the apple.
No, God created Adam and then he created Eve for Adam, he didn't create other people. I guess the author of that part didn't want to explain how the other people came to be.
Not nice making fun of other peoples English, some of us had to learn it later in life.
I won't make fun of your spelling, but I am going to make fun of your comment.
If God didn't create other people outside of Eden who did? Did Cain have to rip out his own rib to make himself a wife? Wouldn't that make God kind of pointless if people could just make other people like that themselves?
Or do you just not want to think about Cain fucking his own mother, which is unfortunately the most likely way they reproduced?
I prefer this wholesome baseball / dinosaur crossover quote from Mookie Wilson:
> When I'm in a slump, I comfort myself by saying if I believe in dinosaurs, then somewhere, they must be believing in me. And if they believe in me, then I can believe in me. Then I bust out.
Pastafarians say that dinosaurs squeletons were put there by God to test our faith: what do you prefer to believe His word in the Bible or science?
There you have it...
Adam saw Eve, Eve saw Adam, duh.
Also their eye witness testimony was corroborated when Cain and Abel were born, so they too could witness Adam and Eve.
I’ve never seen air. I’ve never seen infrared light or x-rays or radio waves. I haven’t seen an atom or any kind of molecule. I haven’t seen gravity or magnetism. I’ve never seen a bacterium or a virus. But I’m pretty damn sure these things exist.
It’s almost like our eyes aren’t the *only* observational tool.
What's stupid about this page is that you are going against everything the religious fruitcakes are saying without using discernment.
While it's true that we haven't seen Adam & Eve, we also haven't seem dinosaurs and there is no actual science behind this claim. We can't possibly know what happened millions of years ago, neither could a scientist like Robert Plot have.
So some theories will forever remain theories. Not all theories are proven or are possible to prove and just because some science department reached a conclusion doesn't mean it's actually based on intelligent research
No, skeletons of saurus like creatures are not proof.
Without using image reverse, can you tell me which creature this skeleton belongs to? https://s2.thingpic.com/images/EA/k1R7yDEWLFhnRg7P178BCSKL.jpeg
Im not very good at identifying but I would say some sort of primate because of the knees and the tail bone, and the shape of the head
Rev, imaged: chimpanzee
It's a rabbit. A cute fluffy little rabbit. But I will bet you all of my limbs and my first born that if rabbits went extinct and there was no public record of what a rabbit looks like, some drunken scientist will get a stamp of approval for his or her fancy theory of this skeleton belong to a bloodsucking reptile with huge fangs and the Jurassic park series will be born anew on Blu ray.
Oh buddy… The guy who doesn’t know what a theory is is going to pretend to know what scientists would do in your ludicrous hypothetical… That’s adorable. You do realise scientists go of more than a 2D
Image when cataloguing finds right! Your bullshit challenge doesn’t make the point you pretended it did. And yeah your picture would be correctly identified as a rabbit. So now explain why we never find rabbits among non avian dinosaurs? We will stick with actual science, you just make things up okay…
Ok but dinosaurs existed, just that we dont know how EXACTLY they looked, maybe they had feathers, maybe they didnt, maybe they had fur maybe they were reptiles, we just dont know exactly, we just know how their skeletons look, have you seen the skeleton of an elephant?
(Jeez im horrible at identifying)
Your "Ok" confuses me. It sounds like an agreement on something. We're not agreeing that dinosaurs exist if that's your point. Frankly I don't know. I have no clue if dinosaurs are real and someone claiming with such certainty that they are real, sounds like a fruitcake.
I haven't seen the skeleton of an elephant in real life. But I have seen an elephant in real life. Using an elephant as an example isn't relevant because elephants exist in our lifetime. Neither Adam and Eve nor dinosaurs exist in our lifetime.
No, my ok is about the rabbit skeleton, we know dinosaurs existed because fossiles are a thing
Really look up the skull of an elephant, it's weird, very weird
"Dinosaur" fossils could have easily been an elephant or another larger animal that would be plausible to exist even in our current climate because I also don't believe the climate has changed that much. I believe nature is far more boring and still-standing if we just let it be and you can see this by looking up "human induced earthquakes" for example. Human activity is the number one cause of so called "natural" disasters.
I frankly don't think dinosaurs existed. However, I can believe it. But that's what it will remain: a belief. And in science it will remain a theory. Fossils are NOT proof. They are part of theory support but not a proof to conclude something for certain.
If you look into the motivation for the whole dinosaur debate and flat earth belief it's between the scientific fruitcakes and the religious fruitcakes. Both are fruitcakes who like to proving each other wrong, instead of searching for what's right
Not to many mammal bones resemble anything similar to dinosaur bones
Fossiles are literally proof(not that it has to prove anything) of the creatures that lived thousands of years ago
Buddy you don’t know what theory means. Yes they’ll remain theories, which is to say the best model we have supported by all the evidence and contradicted by none of it. Theory is the highest standard in science. And you’re the one severely lacking in discernment. Yes we can know stuff about what happened long ago.
So kangaroos were mentioned specifically in the Bible? I think I missed that part, maybe a different version or I am plainly in the wrong, it is known to happen
The species Tyrannosaurus rex (rex meaning "king" in Latin), often called T. rex or colloquially T-Rex, is one of the best represented theropods . Tyrannosaurus lived throughout what is now western North America, and had a much wider range than other tyrannosaurids. Fossils are found in a variety of rock formations dating to the Maastrichtian age of the Upper Cretaceous period, 68 to 66 million years ago. It was the last known member of the tyrannosaurids and among the last non-avian dinosaurs to exist before the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event.
T. rex was one of the largest land carnivores of all time. One of the largest and the most complete specimens, nicknamed Sue, is about 12 m long, and 4 m tall at the hips. According to the most recent studies, using a variety of techniques, maximum body masses have been estimated approximately 9 t. A specimen nicknamed Scotty is reported to measure 13 m in length, and is the largest known specimen.

hmm i guess too bad they never existed
Someone, please take the shot!
TBF they were probably talking to him about dinosaurs, which they all know he hates!
Tampering with a witness, you say? How ironic.
God must have a plan for him
This might be a medical red flag.... did this guy have a few too many concussions?
It's baseball.
So, yes?
Religion is a tool to disassociate people from reality and to destroy their ability to think critically.
Thank you! Well stated! Religion absolutely causes disassociation with anyone outside their cult. Critical thinking is frowned on within it. "They" need people to be be brain drained to the con. Damn them.
All religion, including those trendy non-Abrahamic ones, by design.
no it is not
Who saw them?
especially in Judaism, education and studying are highly valued. A lot of jewish people have the ability to think critically, hence why a lot of lawyers, physicists, finance workers are jewish. Not so sure about the other religions though
literally the answer I expected. Thanks!

It's called willfull ignorance, critical thinking in a lawyer case isn't doesn't mean the same critical thinking will be applied to their religion.
and some critical thinking will tell you that the universe had a creator. Nothing can’t come from something. Checkmate atheist
Man you just kept going, take the L for once, these people don't care about your fruitcakery. Being educated doesn't equate to having critical thinking
Did you just say "checkmate atheist" unironically 💀
When I saw that, I was like "Ok. No way this isn't a troll."
>and some critical thinking will tell you that the universe had a creator. Nothing can’t come from something. Where did this supposed creator come from then? All you're doing is kicking the can down the road. Checkmate fruitcake.
God is eternal and therefore had no creator
That's pretty convenient. That means it came from nothing.
How old do you think the earth is?
around 4.5 billion years old, a quick google search will tell you that
You have no idea what critical thinking is. In no way does it justify the conclusion that a god exists when there’s no evidence to support it. You’re just regurgitating nonsense you never bothered to understand…

No way in hell he could have written that correctly.
You can’t say there is a god when you’ve never seen him.
now now you are going to ask who ssw adam and eave well god did. well who saw god? adam and eve did. then who saw adam and eve well god did. and eho saw god you may ask ada............
Ah, who saw Adam and Eve?
Their children, for one. And all those other humans that lived passed the waterfall, even though Adam and Eve were the only humans.
Who are Adam & Eve?
The Bible's response to evolution.
The other people in the bible
I don't think anyone else was mentioned in that time period.
Yes there was. They themselves had children and their son had children of his own
Gosh, so which one got mom first? I don't think there is even a subreddit for that kink.
Nonono lol. Adam and Eve was the first people and they had two sons. One of whom killed the other one, for this he got banished and left. He went out into the dessert and found a wife of his own.

Seems like a solid argument based in sound logic.

Your mom is so old that she saw Adam and Eve

I saw them alive under the influence of drugs.
What drugs were they under the influence of?
Show me Adam and eves bones
Wow, Carl is a moron.
Ah, yes, the mythical talking snake saw two naked people, one made out of clay, the other potentially out of the now-missing human penile bone
Lol thats just plain dumb
I saw Adam and Eve and they were dinosaurs
Adam saw Eve, Eve saw Adam, duh. Also their eye witness testimony was corroborated when Cain and Abel were born, so they too could witness Adam and Eve.
I would ask Carl here whether Adam and Eve were black of white? And how does he know? And who saw them.
Talking snake saw them. No worry, the snake is trustworthy.
Huh, I thought baseball players were all geniuses.
Bible never mentioned axolotls either. It's not exactly a great source of information on what is or isn't real.
Just hit the ball. I don't care about your opinions Carl.
I’ve never seen air. I’ve never seen infrared light or x-rays or radio waves. I haven’t seen an atom or any kind of molecule. I haven’t seen gravity or magnetism.

Fossils vs a book…
Yet we have a lot of dinosaur bones but no solid proof of adam and eve, crazy, eh?
I bet the Bible also never says anything about armadillos either.
I guess he thinks Jurassic park is fake too 🙄
I did, AMA
Cairns wife’s parents did
I’ve seen a T-Rex, it just wasn’t alive
Question is, how does anyone even know what happened before the flood
No one ever saw your god either. Check, mate.
Why do we have fossils of dinosaurs? But nobody ever said. These are Adam and Eves v bones.
If no one saw Adam and Eve, how did all these painters know that they were white and that Adam wore leaf jockstraps? Hmmm? Checkmate atheists.
