What about pineapples, walnuts and coconuts?

Kirk and Ray tackle atheism using Pepsi and a banana aka "the atheist's nightmare." The whole thing is cracktastic but if you watch only one part make sure to watch from 3:30 to 4:36

I think what really makes this show is how the title sounds like a Kung Fu flick.

Wow. So bananas, by their ease of use prove that God exists?

Shame that he didn't pay as much attention to, say, apples (that nasty core in the middle), watermelon (too heavy to carry, and all those annoying seeds), oranges (try to eat one and keep your hands clean), etc.

I like how not even Kirk keeps a straight face about the banana.

Of course, Ray never heard of the right way to peel a banana.

Does that mean monkeys are atheists?

This makes me so hot. Post every single one.

The banana thing really is amazing. So earnest. Thank you, nooneyouknow, for pointing out that segment. I doubt I would've had the patience to watch it that long.

I wonder how they explain physical deformities. If god is perfect surely his designs are as well?

See, this is why we need to keep SAT analogies around. Some of us simply don't understand what bad ones are.

What they don't show you in that video is God sitting just to the right off-frame. That's his giant shadow...or maybe the black monolith's shadow. Whatever.

Bow now to PepsiCo and Chiquita.

My banana curves away from my face. Is it broken?

And what about pomegranates? They're delicious, but those fuckers take a while to de-seed. And they don't come with the vanilla ice cream they were meant to be eaten with, so God messed up twice on just that one damn fruit.

Thus, I refute Cameron.

PenDevil : "I wonder how they explain physical deformities. If god is perfect surely his designs are as well?"

Deformities are created by god as gifts to fetishists. I think it's in Kirk & Ray #17.

Their whole argument hinges on the belief that everything needs a creator. If that is the case, who created god?

(At the beginning of the vid I thought Kirk said "insane" instead of "unsaved." The inflection was appropriate for either utterance.

Nice to know the feeling is mutual.)

Requesting future uses of the "kirkcameron" tag to be accompanied by "batshitinsane".

Hey, cool, now I have an explanation for the fact that I've hated bananas for as long as I can remember. That's been bugging me.
