We’re All Memory Chips
September 30th 2005 at 9:09 am
Forget the implications and problems of creationism that is getting shoved at people these days, I like this from an ID advocate lawyer in the courtroom in Harrisburg:
“For all we know, the world may have been created five minutes ago and we’ve all been implanted with memory chips.”
I want a sticker with that written on it slapped on their biology books. It’s a much cooler theory, and since science is getting tossed out the window they may as well teach Matrix-inspired Science Fiction.
By the way, I believe we live on a giant turtle. I wonder if that will that be allowed into Harrisburg?

If this is intellegent design, we could have used a more intellegent designer.
