thank you for setting back Christian thought, reason, and logic back 4000 years (yes... that's before Jesus was around...)

yup. i've been to salt in baltimore. yummy!!! + they have a great selection of high-end beers.

ok. So, I read this at work during the day, and as I was at costco tonight after work. What do I see? a bag of pomelo's So I go over, and try to feel 'giving water' that you speak of, and to the best that I can tell, I find a good one. I just cracked it open, and it was absolutely dry and nasty. My trunk smells incredible, but I was so disappointed.

milk!

I'm all for hardees advertising a burger as a sickeningly unhealthy burger - "thickburger"? cmon, anyone with any common sense will know that something called a 'thickburger' ain't good for you.

then there's food like a chipotle burrito that flies under the radar, because it's a burrito with stuff like rice, beans, veggies. something like THAT can't be that bad for you, right?.....

when restaurants/companies start deceiving the consumer (you can't find nutritional information at a chipotle, even though it's avail in all other fast food restaurants), that's when they execs should be held responsible...

By the way, in an interview with Hellbound Alleee a while back, Ray Comfort conceded the banana argument:

Alleee: So what do you think- The banana thing has been going around the Internet- I don’t know if you know this-

Ray: Well, the banana thing’s kinda tongue-in-cheek. Noone should really take it too seriously.

Alleee: Okay, so- I just wanted to- because there’s been a lot of talk- even like… Penn from “Penn and Teller” is talking about this. There’s been a lot of talk about this- the banana thing about how God made it so perfectly for humans but… the biggest- the most logical argument I’ve heard and actually made myself was that God didn’t make the banana. Because… it’s called horticulture.

Ray: Where does it come from?

Alleee: Well, man- the banana originally- well, I don’t know how originally it was, but the wild banana-

Franc: It’s called the…

Alleee: Plantain, right. Before the plantain, the banana was kind of hard and not very tasty and not- not what we have designed it to fit the hand better… bananas are big and plump and sweet because of what we have done-

Ray: The thing is, I wouldn’t let the banana thing worry you.

Aaron: [laughing]

Alleee: Well, I’m just saying that… there are very few plants- and we argue with some environmentalists a lot who- who don’t believe in bioengineered food- because most food that we eat of course is farmed and is… done through horticulture and we’ve engineered these fruits and vegetables to be more tasty to us. So actually, the banana seems to be not- not made by God at this point, it’s more like… what came first, the banana or the hand? You know? Man took the banana and made it better for man, rather than the other way…

Ray: Okay, you’ve got that one. You can have the banana.

Franc: [laughing] We win! We win!

OK, I'm going to ask a stupid question - where did bananas originate? I've always thought it was in South America and close by islands. If it were in deed a "new world" fruit - then they probably weren't affected by human "intervention" that much until after 1492. I suppose that natives could have crossed the Pacific and then gone back with some. Just wondering! ;D

creationism is for stupid monkeys.

This video would make a lot more sense if those believing in the Christian God only ate bananas and nothing else.

If God were to design the food we eat for ease of eating, by his logic, wouldn't everything we eat be like a banana?

ugh..paglia. pretentious and uninformed, a great combination.

thank god for the creation of iceberg lettuce for easier packing and shipping. oh, wait...
