[A creationist contemplating God's creation]
might i add that we dont need body hair, two nostrils, weird looking ears, and why do we have to be born into this world by being pooped out of our mother's vagina? doesnt really sound right for a loving god to give us such a disgusting way to be created

It seems to me he is arguing against creationism, not for it. Of course we know that fundies can be pretty contradictory and not realize it, but do we have any indpendent evidence that Scott is a creationist? If not, I would advise removing this post. It is a kind of silly argument to come up against creationism, but it's not fundy.
Careful Scott, your misogyny is showing.
I love his next post as well:
"no martin i am not gay, im not even bi, ever watch a baby get born? that has nothing to do with sexuality. it is purely disgusting. a tiny human covered in disgusting white mucas trying to breathe..."
Someone want to tell this homophobic jackass that a woman's vagina has more function in the world than just as a vessel for male usage and objectification?
What does his squeamishness have to do with homophobia at all? I don't see the connection; he's not even referring to men, but to women -- and not the sexual aspect, but the result thereof. His problem seems more like germophobia, or at least a profound aversion to organic messiness and scatological matters.
And, yeah, birth DOES sound pretty gross and disgusting when you get right down to it and put it in those terms; I'm sure that's why so many fundies hate to recognize that we are animals. For that matter, so does sex, to many children hearing about it for the first time; despite the innate gullibility of most children, many of them consider it just a really sick joke at first.

Having two nostrils is useful. It allows you to still breathe even if you have a really big booger or a lot of snot in one nostril.
As for the ears, weren't we created in God's image? Is he insulting God?
I also wonder what Scott thinks would be a better place for babies to pop out of. The urethra? The anus? The weird ears?
<< might i add that we dont need body hair, two nostrils, weird looking ears >>
Very well then. Please turn in all of your hair, one nostril, and your earflaps and see how you get along.
Yeah, this guy is not a fundie, according to his profile on there he wants to be an evolutionary biologist. And frankly, I doubt any fundies listen to Incubus.
I don't see how this is really a fundy quote even if Scott is a fundy (at least without specific words up here to contrast them with), and I also don't see where Joe (the Joe here on fstdt, who may or may not match myspace Joe) is coming from in his response. The knee-jerk canned responses and strawman attacks I see there are more fundie than the original post.
I'm hoping that rather than being right about this, some subtle joke whizzed right over my head.
Body hair actually has a use. Pubic hair prevents chaffing during sex. Arm pit hair works silimiarly in those sweaty pits.
What would Scotty consider good-looking ears? Should we have ears like a rabbit? A bloodhound? A big funnel centered on our forehead?
I can't defend having two nostrils other than to say we have to have some number of nostrils, why not two?
As for human birth, what would work better for Scotty? Maybe mail-order? Unky Clem's magic cabbage leaf?
Nature does what works, the way human birth their young is like any mammals.
He may not be Fundy but the "Loving God" reference certainly suggests he's a believer.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
