Beer is often sold at football games. Beer has NOTHING to do with football and beer does NOT ever produce better athletes by frequent association with football. It is true that the evolution religion is unfortunately often mixed with science books, but it will never become science by virtue of frequent association with real science. Evolution needs to be taught in a RELIGION class at school or maybe an “ancient mythology” class, but NOT in a SCIENCE class.

Beer has nothing to do with football? Why do you think there are so many beer commercials around football games? Besides, science books involve how things work; evolution is not so much beer as the rulebook. Creationism, on the other hand, doesn't even get as far as tailgating.
Ah, the old evolution is a religion crap. OK Kent, I've seen evolution proven with some agar, a lab dish and some antibiotics. Can you prove god?
-Who the hell ever asserted that beer did that? I've seen the beer companies assert that beer helps you get women but there's actually a meager kernel of truth in that.
-Since it's not a religion and is, in fact, evidence-based it will remain where it belongs. A shame you didn't do the same and remain in your father's testicle...
The funny thing? Technically, Christianity IS an ancient fucking mythology. Just one that happened to survive modernity and continue polluting minds well into the 21st century.

I laughed so hard when I saw that.
Before you try the "I'm rubber, you're glue" approach, you might want to check if the reversal actually works. The Theory of Evolution not being a recognized religion (any more than gravity being a religion) and not being ancient (unless you consider the mid-19th century ancient) kind of puts a damper on that. This isn't the pot calling the kettle black, this is the pot calling the crystal black.

You've never been to a tailgater or watched NFL games on TV, have you?
"evolution ... will never become science..."
So very true. In much the same way that a rock cannot become a rock, or a cow cannot become a cow. Evolution cannot become science because it already is science.
There are many ideas of what a religion is, but here are some common traits that you'll often find. See how many apply to evolution.
- Prayer of some sort.
- A distinction between sacred and profane.
- Formal or informal rituals.
- Feelings of awe are encouraged or cultivated during said rituals.
- Moral rules said to be supernatural in origin.
- A belief of some sort about a supernatural aspect of the self.
- A belief concerning the continuing fate of the self after death.
I realize that not all of these would apply to every religion. But they all apply to Kent's "close personal relationship", and none apply to evolution. In fact, don't creationists frequently use the moral argument as a reason for why we should pretend their claims are true?
Oh, this idiot's back again. Yoy.
Seriously though, I hate this guy. I really hate him. Claiming he's a doctor while he's an imbecile who didn't work for it is just a massive insult to all people who worked and studied hard to earn their degrees. People who've used their knowledge and intelligence to change the world.
Hell, I have more respect for catholic priests as they earned their degrees in theology by working and studying, as opposed to bribing someone to get your "degree" in "truthology".

Sakura Kinomoto is standing on Optimus Prime's shoulder. Your argument is invalid [/Eddie Izzard]
Drinking an enjoyable beverage adds to the enjoyment of watching a public spectacle. There's a reason for everything, Kent.
As an Englishman, I'd have to add that watching England these days practically demands the state of being royally bladdered.

Yes!

Evolution by Natural Selection was discovered by scientists following scientific methods. How is it not science?

"Get your black ass down here!" The pot says to the milk jug.
Says stuff about football players drinking beer at the game (not a smart thing for them to do to say the least) then moves on to teaching religion in science class & science in religion class....because "Ignorance Is Next To Godliness" or something.
What does beer & football have to do with the evolution/creationism thing, anyway?
Methinks this dork played a round of NFL-caliber football without a helmet.

It makes you feel a whole lot better if your team is losing. If you get enough of it, who cares?
As drinking to excess has been rigorously tested at many institutions of higher learning, there is a massive amount of evidence that consumption of too much beer can result in Darwin Awards. (One might even go so far as to say that "it's a theory" :))
Other than that, I'm missing the connection with evolution.
"Evolution needs to be taught in a RELIGION class at school or maybe an “ancient mythology” class.."
How the hell does a theory that first came to prevalence in the late 1800's qualify as 'ancient mythology'?
Did prison make you lose what was left of your mind, Kent?

If one was to read jeebus' words....money has nothing to do with religion. "It is harder for a rich man to get into the kingdom than a camel to pass through the eye of a needle.".
So Kent....just what were you doing with over 40K of cash hidden away in your house from the IRS before you got convicted? Beer has more to do with football than your hidden money has to do with the xian religion. Keep it up Kent, we love your hypocrisy.
Wow, this man is a real innovator. A man at the pinnacle of modern stupidity, spearheading the cause of ignorant biblical literalistic pseudo scientists..
What an absolute moron. People of America and the greater world...do not listen to the ramblings of this uninformed and ignorant spin doctor (a bad one at that).
Thank goodness natural selection will take care of these imbeciles in due course...unless it all ends up like 'Idiocracy', with dysgenics breeding the intelligent people out of the gene pool...let's hope it never comes to that.
Evolution is part of Biology, which is often "mixed with science books". Evolution is science because it's a verified scientific theory, and it one of the "realest" sciences we have. Evolution needs to be taught in a BIOLOGY class, nitwit. Since when is a mere 150 years "ancient"? Mythology is what you find in the Bible, the Koran, the Talmud and the Torah. And, of course, in your "doctorate" dissertation, you tax fraud convict.
What does any of this have to do with people liking to drink beer while watching a lot of men chasing a round or oval-shaped ball?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
