There's things that trump IQ scores and good writing skills and being able to do advanced math. Believing in **** that is without question false, obviously false, in your face false. More obviously false than Santa Claus. The moon being made of cheese. The earth being flat. If you believe in something that stupid. That ****ing retarded. You are ****ing stupid. No matter what else you've achieved intellectuallly. It does not help you. It's that bad. We can't discuss any other point except your stupidity. Because that's all that Christians have. A big pile of stupidity that smells like vomit. It's not a debate or a discussion. It's letting people know that they are covered in **** and vomit.
