It's weird that her and others insist on announcing publicly how dumb they are over and over again.

They tell on themselves often. I had a good laugh at Elon's strangely specific 'robot of the future' post that 'won't complain about ur bad performance in bed or weird looking junk'. I mean just tell the world y don't u 😂

Dinosaurs being hit by a meteor apparently makes less sense to her than a zombie who could turn water into wine

He wasn't a zombie at the time, my man.
You don't need to believe the stories to get the order of events right.

Apologies, I should have said ‘a person who could turn water into wine and then turned into a zombie’

Ok Candace. Let’s take out our safety pencil and a circle of paper, and maybe we can finish up this month on the letter A

That’s what’s amazing. They believe fantastical stories in a book that thousands of corrupt leaders have used to fool and control the masses with, yet actual hard working scientists are assumed to be “pwned by big gov” and trying to fool them. But they too smart for that!

Most people don’t get dumber as they get older. But the really strange thing is bragging about it.

Non-avian dinosaurs. We’re still surrounded by birds (avian dinosaurs) that are genetically closer to crocodiles than crocodiles are to lizards and turtles.

Which puts them here about 65 million years before the creation of the earth. Interesting.

She's amazing...
I couldn't dream of being this shameless a grifter, it's far beyond my powers. Imagine if she channeled this sort of effort into anything fucking else.
What a time to be alive.

Keep an eye on SCOTUS and the ilk. I’m seeing more creationist propaganda on my feed and getting more attention from leading alt-right figures. You see what they’ve done Louisiana and Oklahoma. They’re coming for science. They want to teach our children that the earth is less than 6000 years old and that dinosaurs lived on a boat with people.
The evangelical Christo-fascists want a return on their investment. The checks are getting cashed and the favors are being called in as they’re a dying out.
I think the real push is to have state and federal tax dollars diverted to “faith-based” (Christian) schools.

That's what the Republicans have been doing for the last 40 years.

u/jiggscaseyNJ 1d ago
Agreed but it seems like it’s been ramped up in the last few years.

u/Fun_in_Space 1d ago
They did the "stealth strategy" for years, but they are bolder now. They have convinced themselves that they are the majority.

Let me guess. She believes "Giant flood and a zoo boat with 40,000 animals being taken care of by 8 people for a year" is much more plausible.

u/Capital_Pipe_6038 1d ago
Don't forget there was only 2 of each which implies every animal today is extremely inbred
2
u/hplcr 1d ago edited 1d ago
Depending on which verse you read, it's 2 pairs of all animals or 2 pairs of clean animals and 7 pairs of unclean animals.
This doesn't help the inbreeding problem at all but it greatly complicates the already crushing logistics problem for the whole enterprise. Seriously, don't get me started how much the entire scenario doesn't work the moment it ceases to be mythology. That boat would leak like a motherfucker and everyone would probably die from lack of water, exhaustion and illness within a month.
But honestly it doesn't matter because nothing about the scenario makes any fucking sense anyway so you basically have to invoke magic to hold the entire story together. Though when you invoke magic you have to ask why doesn't god just have the eagles fly Noah to Mt. Doom to begin with.

Maybe thats why they're killing rhinos and elephants: because they want to hide the truth.

I mean I’m a Christian(a gay very not judgy one) and even my creationist theory that I believe in thinks dinosaurs are real. We just think it’s 6,000 years old and not millions. I mean dinosaurs are even mentioned in the Bible so meh.

u/DardS8Br 1d ago
You’re still denying indisputable fact. Which is just as big of a facepalm
Also dinosaurs weren’t mentioned in the Bible. Unless you’re talking about birds

u/padfootiscool1997 1d ago
I mean I’m not sure why I’m getting so much downvotes. I didn’t say I hope everyone has to learn my views or argue them. I just said even my science theory talks about dinosaurs. Wasn’t trying to start a fight. Was just commenting. And ya the Bible talks about dragons/dinosaurs. Vaguely a couple times. But not really goes into it much.

Welcome to Reddit. Let's see if I get downvoted by association.

Genuinely interested in how it could make sense. We know what happened in human history 6000 years ago. We have archeological remains from many places around the world and nothing points to dinosaurs. No remains, no statue, no painting, nothing. Also, every fossil evidence about dinosaurs prove that they lived in a world where continents were placed in a very different way, which was obviously not the case in let's say ancient egypt

u/padfootiscool1997 1d ago
So I’m in no way a science student or teacher or anything. And I definitely do not speak for people who actually know the creationist theory well. But the gist I was taught in elementary school was that between about 6,000 and 10,000 years ago Adam and Eve lived in the garden of Eden during the period when there was only one continent. One giant continent. And years later when Noah collected 7 of every clean animal and two of every dirty animals. The flood caused structural damage to the continent. Then four generations later when Peleg was born the continent started to split thanks to underwater volcanos and other structures damage from the flood. made the continents and then spread then out slowly like hundred of years slowly. Genesis 10:25 To Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided; and his brother’s name was Joktan. Then again I’m not into science and stuff much. But I think there was supposed to be a short ice age but I don’t remember exactly. I think I was told somthing like from 2350 BC to 1650 BC. Apparently Abraham was around for it. So kudos to him. But it wasn’t supposedly like a whole earth just like northern most longitudes or something. Anyway we believe the rest of history like the pharaohs and Rome and everything. It’s just we think earth came about and stayed about thanks to a helping hand. Also I like the fact I’m made in a image of something and not from a monkey. But again I’m not starting fights. I get it everyone has their own opinions. But ya if you wanted to know the young earth creationists theory that’s kinda about what I was told.

I'm a Muslim flat earther and even I know that the dinosaurs fell off the edge onto the one below, which is why they are now gone. People believe the craziest things.
