Losing Religion to the Amazonian Pirahã Tribe

Linguistics professor Daniel Everett explains the idea of “xibipíío,” a way of life he encountered while studying the language of the Amazonian Pirahã tribe. Everett, a former Christian missionary, was challenged to rethink his faith after learning the Pirahã’s concept of experiential liminality.

You need both silly. Subjective without something objective being talked about is just bullshit flying around. Maybe it sticks to something or maybe it doesn’t. Who cares, its bullshit. Ah, but there is something being talked about. Only then can we sort out the real shit from the bullshit. Getting to the real shit. That’s what’s up.

Design

atheistramblings:

Some people would have us believe that we were designed by some intelligent designer (ID). They go on and on about some amazing fact about the human body and ask how could that come about by “random” processes; of course anybody that truly understands evolution and natural selection knows that the processes are not random in the way suggested by an IDiot.

But let’s put the shoe on the other foot for a minute. If their designer is so intelligent how come they made so many stuff ups? Here’s just a few…

the drain for our sinuses is actually towards the top of the head, so it actually can’t function as a drain, thus we have all sorts of sinus problems. However, this location makes sense if we were walking on all fours.

why do blood vessels in the eye pass in front of the retina, surely an intelligent designer would have placed the blood vessels behind the retina.

Why did the designer decided to have the optical nerves enter/leave the eye right in the centre of our field of view essentially giving us a blind spot there.

In human females a fertilized egg can quite happily implant itself in the fallopian tube, cervix or ovary; proving once again that the designer hates women.

In a human female the birth canal passes through the pelvis. If the babies head is larger than normal the babies head cannot pass through the pelvic opening; again more proof the designer hates women.

Human male testies pass from the abdomin into the scrotum during gestation. This results in two weak points in the abdominal wall where hernias can later form

Muscles attached to the ears for no reason.

Nerves that are present in the feet of some people which serve no purpose.

Why do flightless birds still have wings, surely claws or paws would make more sense.

The recurrent laryngeal nerve travels from the brain to the larynx via the aortic arch, in giraffes this results in 20 extra feet of nerves.

Now Darwin’s theory of evolution through natuaral selection adequately explains why the above occur, as it does for all aspects of biology on Earth (and beyond). IDiots are left with having to accept that if there really is a designer He (he’s always a He) is not as intelligent, all knowing, or caring as they would have us believe.

Reference: had to make do with Wikipeida; books are at home.

I’ve always thought this was the better argument against ID. Not where things are just right, but things that make you go, “Huh, really?” My favorite example is the one that rabbits sometimes eat their own poop because they didn’t digest it well the first time.

“Well God has a purpose for everything!” Oh goddammit….

NASA Space Pen

NASA Space Pen:

I see the NASA pen joke becoming more popular, so just in case I decided to link to the snopes article about it. You know, fighting the good fight against internet disinformation.

Like any urban legend though, you can tell its wrong just from the numbers. 12 billion dollars when NASA first started sending up astronauts? Like in the 60’s? The Apollo program was like 20 something billion (not inflation adjusted) dollars. And -300 degrees Celsius? Isn’t absolute zero only -273?
