Dumbest thing you've ever heard?

[Clayton]

Religion in general. Between talking snakes, galactic space daddies, "Arks" that are smaller than the Titanic but were supposedly carrying two of every animal in the world...

The list goes on. There's just something about religion that makes me cringe lol.

Agreed. Some of the logics is so rediculouse that I can't believe people believe in it.

Eh. Whatever floats your boat, surely (barely a pun). To me, religion is okay as long as it keeps you from killing each other. In my language, the word "religion" is translated to essentially mean "no chaos". I may not be as religious as my parents want me to be, but by God if I can use my religion to keep chaos out of my life, I shall.

I guess in the end it's not about religion, but morals.

Religion has cause the most deaths than anything else in the world; from Inquisitions, to "Holy" wars, to excuses to make war and everything in between, religion is a sickness on the world.

Agreed. But have morals cause any of that? Which is why it's pointless to have religion but no morals.

My vote would be the time I heard about Ken Ham actually trying to "re build" the ark.

Not trying, construction has begun.

Also those fundamentalist idiots managed to finagle millions in tax breaks from the Kentucky government.

That doesnt sound like you actually heard anything he said or read anything he wrote. But changing his name like an elementary schooler would - I guess you would have a hard time to understand it anyway.

I rather enjoy his work, and do find it food for thought - even if I dont agree with everything he says or writes. Which is kind of the point of his work and writing style.

I've read/heard his views and disagree with them due to how much of an 'arrogant atheist' he is, and I'm saying that as an atheist. Also despite my university education I still find it funny to refer to him as dick dorkins after that infamous tweet to the nytimes.

You have to be more specific. The honey thing, the down syndrome thing or the elevator gate thing? The man tweets a lot of stuff ;-)

I can imagine the down syndrome tweet is the most controversial one. However, its what I would do if I was in this situation. At least I think I would - you cant be sure about stuff like that, and there is always another human involved :-/

hmmm... dumbest thing i've ever heard...

i would make a joke about notch leaving minecraft but that's a bit bad

[Damien Hart]

Probably not the dumbest thing I've ever heard, but this is definitely up there - several people have come onto these forums, where Tynan is active pretty much daily, and openly admitted to pirating the game. I mean really, you've just said "Oh, hey, I stole your game, hope you don't mind. I'll pay for it one day, I promise. You can trust me, I'm a complete stranger on the internet."

Really, how did you expect that to go down?

*Begins a slow clap*

To be fair, some have admitted to pirating and then purchasing it. But those that you describe do kind of make you laugh.

what i don't get, is how people would go through the hassle of registering to a forum just to tell tynan how much they like the game and intend to purchase it in the future..

that's like lol.. too much effort for a typical pirate.
most would just cut-and-run, instead contacting the developer to give them feedback.. haha..
