It's a doozy.

<a href="http://www.chick.com/bc/2002/snake.asp" target="_blank">web page</a>

Essentially, he's taking a 2-headed snake as an argument against evolution. Then he goes off with some young earth 'theory'. Kind of pathetic, really.

But... two heads are not a beneficial mutation, Jack. We define beneficial mutations as those which DON'T get grabbed by a hawk. 2 heads is only a bloody nuisance on a snake.

No comment.

If this is really the best he can do, I'm not too worried.

From the chick article:

Read the article for several sterling examples of "fallacies." I won't grace them by calling them "scientific."

What other discoveries?!

Does Chick honestly believe this, or is this another case of lying for Jesus?

oh jack chick, isn't he fond of saying stuff like "nuke the godless communist gay black baby seals for christ"?

Jack Chick's science is basically the tripe and crap spewed by Kent Hovind. Do a web search on Buddika and Hovind and you'll hit the motherload on the lies of Hovind.

My personal favorite of Hovind's is how dinosaurs and modern man co-existed and Noah took them on the ark. He took baby ones. Of course, a baby seismosaurus would probably weigh like 2 tonnes at the end of year, not to mention the diplodicus, the brachiasaurus, and the camerasaurus. I wonder who had to feed the suchumimus and that carcharodontosaurus. Not a job I'd like to have, I'd be afraid I'd become the food.

Lets not even mention shovelling all that sh*t these things would produce.

Having to care for the lions, tigers and bears would be easy compared to the carnivorous dinosaurs.

Did you notice the bible quote (Gal 4:16) right under the banner for the web-page. I wonder if Chick appreciates the irony.

"Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?"

Apparently the answer is - yes. Science tells the truth and is therefore the enemy of Chick and his like-minded stooges.

One of my favorite pages (so far) in all Chickdom is <a href="http://www.chick.com/information/religions/islam/errors.asp" target="_blank">Scientific Errors in the Qu'ran.</a> Apparently, because there is one error, the entire Muslim faith collapses. Now kids, can you say irony?

I took the liberty of editing the first few paragraphs. What do you think of this?

If the [Bible] is the infallible Word of God, then it stands to reason that it would not contain factual errors of science. By "factual errors" we mean errors that can be physically examined. We are not talking about contradictions between scientific theories and the [Bible]. We are talking about hard evidence that can be checked out.

But first, there is a question we must answer: "is it legitimate to judge the [Bible]?" Many [Christian]s believe in the [Bible] as a blind leap of faith. They really do not care if it is filled with mistakes and contradictions. As far as they are concerned, they were born [Christian] and they will die [Christian]. The more closed minded they are, the more fanatical they become in their religion. When ignorance unites with arrogance, fanaticism is born.

We pity those whose religion is only the product of an accident of birth and culture. They blindly follow whatever religion they were born into. How sad it is to have an unexamined faith; a faith that cannot stand up to reason and science; a faith that merely shouts slogans, stamps its feet and beats its breast in a mindless mob. They do not believe in [Christianity] because it is true. To them [Christianity] is true because they believe it.

Quote:

A poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more; it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing. (Macbeth Act V, Scene 5)

Thankfully, there are millions of [Christian]s today who have received a university education and understand that an unexamined faith is a worthless faith. They are open minded to scientific facts and evidence. They want the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.


Actually, I generally agree with him on this page. Though in a much broader sense.

Let us also not forget that Chick believes that magic is real.

The man is a moron.
