Sumitted by: @RosaRibicondior This candidate has blocked me. If anyone can supply an image of the original, please tweet me a copy @RosaRibicondior (This excellent candidate seems to have taken his account down. Maybe he's plucked up the courage to read a science book. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and assume this outstanding piece of self-defeating stupidity has also been disowned.) |

Refutes Evolution!! #atheist #atheism #atheists Submitted by: @logicalnarwhal Supporting statement: This was the icing on the cake of one of the more ludicrous twitter accounts. It resulted in a very educational, as i'm sure you can imagine, chat with fxmikey and yecistruescience (or whatever he calls himself these days)... Joy. |

| 15 | Candidate: @MMMikeA 02 August 2012 @rosarubicondior Ark of the Covenant and the Commandment tablets, for two. And show me some respect and answer my Q: Science or religion? Submitted by: @RosaRubicondior Tweeted after repetitive requests to provide evidence for his god which he claimed to have. Apparently this may be seen in Ethiopia. It almost goes without saying that he could not explain how this evidence was authenticated and by whom, and found an excuse to break of the conversation shortly afterwards. |

Vote with candidate number in comment section, please.
Troll or not, Mr. Duck's comment on ears was amazing in it's idiocy. I vote #11.
ReplyDeleteI vote 20, for the spelling and logic
ReplyDeleteAll of these are incredibly stupid, but you said "so outstandingly moronic that it helps to reduce the meme of creationism in the human meme pool", so I decided to go with the one whose stupidity is most immediately obvious even to a person with no specialized knowledge -- Absird #7. Even a little kid who's read nothing but a basic children's book on science could tell instantly that that's a galaxy and not an atom.
ReplyDelete#2 for the sheer fallacy he bases it on... weaker sex, indeed!
ReplyDelete@matttammar I'd vote 1, if the account were still active, so I vote 11
ReplyDeleteVoting for #11. @CriminySTFU
ReplyDeleteGotta be no7. Presenting a picture of a galaxy and questioning why scientists think the universe is shaped like an atom! Takes ignorance to a whole new level. Genius.
ReplyDeleteIt was the picture of the galaxy asking if it was a galaxy or a boron atom that convinced me Absird was a parody. It was just too silly to be real.
DeleteCould be. I thought he was genuine at the time. Parodies don't normally become self-righteously indignant when cornered.
DeleteBut it says a lot that it's hard to tell parodies from the real thing when it comes to Creationists.
Methinks ducky is a Poe (and a kinda funny one at that), for pure, unadulterated ignorance I have to go with Josh #20. Come on, intellgent desine by monkys (sic)? Does he not realize what those squiggly red lines under the words on his screen mean?
ReplyDeleteThe Duck is a known troll. One of the Twerts.
DeleteI have to go for @scouse_dot for saying "but how do you grow an ear if you don't know there is anything to hear?". It really got me laughing, not only because of the complete lack of understanding about how evolution works, but the also the comedy mental image of ‘growing an ear’.
ReplyDeleteTo be fair to @Scouse_dot, that question was put to him by @loadsofducks
DeleteI vote for #12 because it had me laughing out loud. #15 reminds me of the conversation I had with a christian today where I kept asking, almost begging, him to point me in the direction of his proof he claimed to have of his god, jesus and the bible. He gave me nothing, only told me to read the bible because it provide all the answers we need.
ReplyDeleteI vote for #6 because that's just too funny! LOL

Don't know if winner decided yet but Absird Charles "galaxy or boron" has to be the winner. :-)
ReplyDeleteThat was my favourite too but it's too late now. I should have closed the comments.
