[A thread starter, "BBC Hates Nature".]
"I saw 7 minutes of a BBC documentary. They managed to portray a piece
of grassy meadow in terms of a bloodcurling struggle for survival.
This is not science anymore just Nazism. This bloodthirsty vision of
nature is not accurate, meadows are not really like this, it is just
the Nazi view of things. Pure evil. Its crystal clear the Darwinists
caused the holocaust by teaching the Hitler youth natural selection."

Godwin! Also strawman. And genocide isn't natural selection, it is artificial. Besides, nature is a mercyless place. Unless you're an apex predator, you will be on someone's menu.
It's called "metaphor," retard.
You think your bible is a literal account of the history of the world, though, so I wouldn't expect you to understand how metaphor works.
Apparently, creatures in nature do not need to compete for resources, nor do they prey upon one another. You will surely win a Nobel for your outstanding research on the topic, "Nature is beautiful, all animals are herbivores, and nothing ever dies. Ever". Associating any commentary to the contrary with Nazis, though? That's a Godwin. I am not sure whether that will count against you or not.
Actually Aryan is artificial, genocide is natural considering the example of the holocaust, if at least one Jew survived to reproduce, their children would have a better chance of coping in death camps.
The Aryan race on the other hand wasn't about survival, it was about selective breeding.
Makes complete sense to me. If they live in a meadow, then the animals and insects must all be vegetarians, living peacefully, and worshipping God.
So, mass-murdering Jews is wrong if it's done by Nazis, but Muslims advocating the eradication of Israel and its inhabitants is OK? Got it...
Muslims are just as hypocritical as Christians, go figure.
Solution to the Muslim Jew crap, just nuke Jerusalem, I mean evacuate as many as possible, but you really need to destroy that city, it's caused too much destruction.
Anyway, if we destroy the temple we get to see if Jesus comes back like the Christians think he will to rebuild it. Then they'll start making excuses for why it didn't happen, like Jesus doesn't like radiation!
What? The purpose of life, all life, if you want to say it has one, is for survival. Everything is constantly in a struggle for survival. That's the driving force for evolution by natural selection. It has absolutely nothing to do with Nazis, and I really have no idea where you even got that idea.
meadows are not really like this
Haha, I can picture some braindead fundie stomping through a meadow and giving any wildlife ample time to run away and never be seen in the first place. "It's so quiet out here, I haven't seen one rabbit!"

It's crystal clear that your parents and teachers were irresponsible and never taught you key facts about such an important part of history. Or else you were just too dumb to understand what you were taught.
I know, right? All these nature programs are total propaganda! I mean, I turned on the discovery channel the other day and they showed a group of lions attacking ONE buffalo! This is obviously showing people that it's "natural" to gang up on Christians! My cats don't gang up on my dog, BECAUSE IT'S NOT NATURAL! Oh wait I forgot that EVILution says you need to kill or be killed!! COME LORD JESUS! MY MOUTH IS OPEN!!!
Ok... I'm starting to scare myself.
You needed to watch more than seven minutes.
If you had, you could have done more than go 'that's not right!'
'Reality is not like that because I say so' is the catch-cry of temperamental children and religious nuts throughout history. Speaking of history, you got that wrong, too. The Nazis did indeed ban Darwin's work. Which rather proves my earlier point.
You could have picked out facts they provided, done an experiment to disprove their hypothesis, and won admiration all around.
Instead, you look like a retard dick.
Ok Nando, yes the meadow looks pretty. Pretty meadow, look at the grasshoppers hop - look at the busy ants, now look what happens when the grasshopper breaks his leg, look at what the busy ants do next.
"I saw 7 minutes of a BBC documentary."
You should have watched the whole thing, then you might have learned something.
"They managed to portray a piece
of grassy meadow in terms of a bloodcurling struggle for survival."
Again, if you had watched the whole documentary, you would know that they were recreating one of Darwin's experiments.
"This bloodthirsty vision of
nature is not accurate, meadows are not really like this"
It's a pity we can't shrink you to the size of an ant, and put you in a meadow. I think you'd soon change your mind.
Seeing as I've never bumped into a squirrel, beetle, bird, or other crature of the meadow in line at the grocery store, I think we'll have to go with the unfortunate "bloodcurling" realities of nature's food-chain.
How in the fuck do you Godwin nature? So, is it the lions, tigers, or bears, who are at the head of the Third Reich?
I had to sweep a field once with a net while doing a line transect. Once I had a sample, I had to slowly reveal the inside of the net and "poot" the insect life revealed (a pooter ), occasionally swallowing the odd insect because of faulty equipment.
The downside, other than the insectophagy and the odd spider trying to make a get away over your face, is that the entire sample was collected into a single jar to be analysed later.
This usually involved identifying one or two very fat spiders and then trying to guess what else had been in the jar from the assorted bits of wing, leg, antenna, etc.
Every square yard of meadow is a Serengeti in miniature. Nature isn't just red in tooth and claw, but in mandible and rostrum as well.
So near and yet so far Mo my lad. You watched the experiment. You understood what they were trying to tell you. You deduced that any deity that would use the process of natural select would be a bit of a cunt. Then, unfortunately, rather than coming to the conclusion that this puts your women hating imaginary friend on rather shaky ground you declare that nature is not real. For the sake of all mankind keep trying you’ll get to the right answer in the end.
You take your view of nature by watching Bambi.
Life must kill in order to survive. Animals eat other animals to live. Even creatures that eat veggies are killing and consuming something in order to live.
Nature is blood red, Live with it.
BAMBI WAS NOT A FUCKING DOCUMENTARY
I know someone who works in Banff National Park. They got shit because so many animals ended up dead on the highway, so they put in huge fences and passways for the animals. Now they're getting shit because the wolves will trap animals along the fence and kill them there. I guess the wolves should have more consideration for the poor human driving by.
*headdesk*
And how many ants do you step on, Nando? How many birds eat worms and insects in your front yard?
Living things DIE. Deal with it.
@Chi
Hmmm....lemme guess..
You are, of course, absolutely right. My bad. Death will come anyway, and then there will be worms. Nothing is wasted.
Awwww, the forests and meadows - with bright and happy sunlight! - are all full of very cute and fluffy animals... some of which, for some inexplicable reason, have rather sharp teeth.
Oh, fuck, it's Nando. This guy is insane - quite literally, as in 'seriously mentally ill'. He believes (for example) that all objects, whether animate or inanimate, have the power of choice. Because we poor materialist-atheist-Darwinists do not recognise that rocks and planets make their own choices, we are against freedom, and therefore Nazis.
He isn't really a Muslim; he's Dutch, and an alleged convert, but he understands Islam as little as he understands everything else.
It's a ladybird*-eat-aphid world out there, pal.
Deal with it.
*- Although, coming home from school one day, during the Great Heatwave of '76, a couple of ladybirds tried to eat me ! XP X3
There was a TV show in the '50s called "The Jungle", which showed this very thing, how the whole world is dog eat dog. Episodes featured grassy meadows, real jungles and forests, your front yard, treetops, urban back alleys, small ponds, big lakes, oceans, deserts, you name it. As I remember, it was brutal. The big ones eat the little ones.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
