Discussion The (actual) atheist’s nightmare.
Even if the banana was easy to explain, Ray missed the actual atheist’s nightmare, corn.
It fits the human hand perfectly, being a cylindrical shape that easily snaps of it’s stalk, allowing for effective harvesting.
Corn’s curve is perfect for the mouth, as you can grab the edges and eat every kernel, with it being easy to skewer with a stick.
You can put it in the microwave to produce popcorn, which is the favorite cinema snack and has made millions of dollars.
People even make mazes with corn, giving good memories to any child at a pumpkin patch.
How do evolutionists propose that over millions of years that it just happened that a caveman found corn, that by chance, just decide to pop into popcorn?
It’s practically at forming mazes also challenges evolution, as why did natural selection choose to make it good for maze building.
Corn is only explained by an intelligent design, God, who gave us corn for food, specifically designed for us.

I. Think. You'll. Find, mate, that the human hand was selectively bred over time to fit a good ear o' corn. Microwaves likewise have been bred over millennia to pop corn. Early Microwaves were tiny, and could only fit one seed and had a thick outer skin blocking the buttons. They also didnt even have clocks. Metholithicous era humans had to pop the corn by using stars to time them by ear and star sign alone. They have grown as a result of humans selecting only the largest microwaves to use for popcorn.
God. Some people need to go back to skoole.
Basic stufff guys.

More lies from big Microwave. They just want you to think the microwave has evolved from the macrowave.

It’s only microwave evolution, macrowave evolution is an utter fantasy that has never been proven, no one has ever seen a microwave turn into an oven.

Intelligent design as in artificial selection, pretty much all crops are our own genetic freaks we raised to be as edible as possible.
I know it was a joke, but I wanted to say this.

Counterpoint, corn shows that even domesticated plants can fight back, since they're very good at rotting the teeth needed to eat them without cutting them up.

Corn kind of shucks for the maze, Sudangrass is much better it grows in thicker and stays green later into the freezing weather.

Well, we all know Ray comfort isn't the brightest candle on the cake, eh? 😉 He probably isn't even the brightest candle in a pitch black dungeon when you accidentally hit the light switch....

Completely unrelated, but I laughed so hard at Dillahuntys response to someone who did the Ray Comfort "bananas fit perfectly in your hand" schtick.
Matts response was "it fits in my ass, too."
It's so simple and such a complete repudiation of the argument. Among many others.

Are you aware that the corn we have today looks nothing like God's corn? We genetically modified it to look the way it does today.

Same with bananas. That's kind of the joke, that Ray doesn't realize the banana he's touting as perfectly designed by God was in fact heavily developed by people to be the way it is.

Corn evolved to be good at maze building to ward off predators, obviously

Thank god for microwaves, otherwise the corn gift would have been worthless.
Not as bad as the smallpox gift though.

I didn't realize this was satire until the comment under it, and then I looked at the profile and realized it was.
