Yes Albion, it's a 50/50 proposition, but the fact that god doesn't communicate with us directly clinches it for the bananas. Good to know, I’ll stop eating bananas immediately!

Now that I think more on this, this banana theory explains allot. Bananas don't need bibles, miracles, saviors and so forth, because they were always god's favorite creatures. God created the banana so that it would be impossible for a banana to lead a life of sin, so therefore it was guaranteed to get into heaven. Bananas don't pay taxes, wage war on one another, or have to deal with teenage bananas. Dang! I should have been a banana. Oh well, too late now (by several hundred million years, although some people claim I am old enough).

Another nice thing about the banana.

After you are finished with it, you can eat it.

Whoa...you mean this was actually presented as a serious argument by someone? I thought this was a joke!

When are these creationist going to figure out that it is not enough to present an argument that would only convince someone who already agrees with you. Are these people morons?

This is definitely going in my list of hilariously stupid YEC arguments, along with the butterbean 'blood antigen' being closest to humans and the Neanderthal music April Fool's joke that ICR actually fell for...
