pro-creationism songs!
post them if you know some. this one was by a band from my area that broke up before i got to see them live, i wanted to ask them about it.
"the argument for creationism"
Apes don't need a higher power
We should be so wise
If only we could use these thumbs
For more than holding books of lies
I'd raise a glass to the death of science
I raise this glass to the downfall of reason
Score one for the creationists!
Singing their song of yes and amen
Your blind faith is almost inspiring
I said almost
...i play this song in my head whenever a silly evolutionist gets lippy.

Poorly written, poorly articulated, poorly reasoned, poor song. If already the lyrics suck, then i could possibly not imagine how bad the music part of the song must be? typically nauseating x-tian rock mold mayhaps?
Edit: then again it indeed might be a parody song and that Super Xtian Johnny Boy is actually a troll.
The second stanza is just frightening. We had a "downfall of reason" and a "death of science" once. It was called "the Dark Ages" and was a thousand years of death, superstition, ignorance, fear, persecution, disease, despotism, and hopelessness.
Why in the hell would anyone ever celebrate a return to such a time?
And the first and last stanzas seems really anti-Creationist to me.
If this guy really believes science is so terrible that he would gleefully see its downfall, the fool should have all the technology he takes for granted removed from his home and he should be forced to live in a bloody cave and forage for his own food. Lets see how much he likes a world without science then!!!
So, wait. You wrote a horrible song, which you sing whenever you start to lose an argument? You still live with your mother, don't you?
Isn't this the guy who is making a fake fundie site? I call troll.
Funny thing is, he'll probably get some fundies to agree that it's a great song just because he said it was anti-"evolutionism", and because these fuckwits are too dumb to figure the ironical parts of the "song".
The part about toasting the downfall of reason sounds like some of the things Martin Luther (a real nutjob himself) said.
These Fundies whine on about how evil science and reason are and yet avail themselves of all the benefits of science and reason.
"i play this song in my head whenever a silly evolutionist gets lippy."
Translation: "I stick my fingers in my ears and sing this stupid song to myself whenever someone points out the stupidity of creationism. I can't support my side of the agrument, so I refuse to listen to there side.
I'm sorry, if you add some sarcasm into it... this is actually mocking christians. or am I not understanding it right? Imagine those "raise a glass" with a touch of sarcasm... it's heaps more fun! :D
I think if John got a chance to ask the group about the song... he would have been unpleasantly surprised :)

Go die from the pox already, fuckwit!
If you hate science and reason so much, get the fuck off of our Internet. You're not allowed to use any of the by-products of science and reason.
I'd start building my mud-hut if I were you. Winter's coming.
Downfall of reason, eh?
So, if you're so against reason... I bet instead of driving a car on the motorway, you'd do something less reasonable... like say, glue thousands of hummingbirds to you and hope they manage to fly you across?
I'm kinda amused by you guys, as an atheist it's hard to beleive that the post is so hard to understand. The song is definately anticreationist the whole thing, the poster is either unaware of it and making an ass of himself, or pretending he's a fundie making an ass of himself. If it's the latter it's hilarious, but the song is in no way pro creationist
"BANG!"
...
"Ouch, my foot!"
...
"Uhhh, did I do that?"
Read the last two lines of your song, numbtard.
> I raise this glass to the downfall of reason
There goes any conception of scales, harmonics, etc. No wonder contemporary Christian music is shit.

I'd raise a glass to the death of science
(<b> Death to the virtue named intelligence </b>)
I raise this glass to the downfall of reason

Score one for the creationists!

Watch out, or our sky daddy’s gonna get pissed! </b>)

functional illiterate. Sometimes it's the worse kind.
You don't even get it. This is why Colbert works, at some point you lost your reason and live in a catchphrase reality. As long as the subject has some connection to your belief you accept it totally,ignoring the contradictive structure
Umm,,, I mean,,,, It doesn't flow right at all. Thats awful.
Jim morrison wrote in metaphor and obscure reference and mostly made sense. This shit is broken
"I'd raise a glass to the death of science
I raise this glass to the downfall of reason"
That sound like a creationist anthem, probably the chorus lines
The lines above and below aren't connected
It’s an industry standard, if you’re trying to send a message, use Western Union. If you’re writing a popular song, it can have any number of meanings, but it has to be a catchy song, first.
Poorly written, poorly stated, and the band broke up…? How weird.
“...i play this song in my head whenever a silly evolutionist gets lippy.”
You probably think blind faith is a virtue. I doubt the artist did.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
