Great satire... genius satire... Here are some of the lyrics: "You see this battle's been raging since Zeus was on the Bottle between science like Democritus and faith like Aristotle who said the mover was movin' like some magic trick...

You gotta love it. The 0 x 0 = the universe crowd. So laughable it hurts. Funny video. Too bad Dawkins and his humanist brethren take himselves so seriously. "If I was dyslexic I'd even hate dog too." I love that line. I've been laughing at atheism since I started using a calculator and thinking with reason and logic as my guide. If atheism didn't corrupt so many people and cause so much horror, it would rank among the best comedy routines of all time. Oh yeah, I love atheists.

Very funny. Thanks for sharing this. The Flava Flav clock is a great touch. I agree that the line about hating dog is the funniest line.

Well, it is funny and touching...and another demonstration that theism is mostly an emotionally held belief.

So many ways to go - none of them the highroad. Amusing and yet - with a smidgen of ewwwwww! Hey David Kuo - saw you just a few minutes ago on NBC news - while they attempted to make the prayer breakfast people sound like a cult of nazis -but you looked good - very earnest and presentable for a Christian guy (a touch of sarcasm - shaken not stirred)

It's too bad, atheism is a legitimate theory that's too often turned into Christian-bashing by people like Dawkins and Hitchens. Although Hitchens is hilarious to listen to, the man's got a sharp wit, even if it is soaked in unnecessary vitriol.

Gotta love it. The "bearded man in the sky + seven days = the universe" crowd. So laughable it hurts. Or crashes airplanes into buildings.

It's a clever video, but what's the real message: people who study things aren't to be trusted.

Yeah, that's the attitude we need.

Where can I get one of those Darwin fish hats?

Saint Andeol, Hitchens' wit is soaked in whiskey, I think. Vitreol is a gel.

At first I though this was a clever pro-creationist or at least anti-Dawkins video. I went back and carefully listened to the lyrics and followed a link in the about this video section which has them written out. After that I changed my opinion of this video.

I think it is satire but it is making fun of the arrogance of people like Dawkins while basically agreeing with his assertions about the nature of reality.

I still want one of those Darwin fish hats.

silly scientists, learning things.

everyone knows observational empiricism is garbage. the answer, of course, to any mystery about the world around us is christianity. hell, next time there's a symposium on vertebrate evolution there better be a baptist pastor with an associate's degree in divinity along with all those people who have a clue of what they're talking about for, you know, balance.
