Phew. I can regain the will to live.<\/p>\n

The post on atheist humour <\/a> about a fake right wing blog, plus a comment by Alun <\/em>about another absolutely brilliant parody site landoverbaptist.org<\/a> had me wondering how many more of these other extremist blogs were fake.<\/p>\n

I somehow ended up browsing an anti-church forum <\/a>by following links from landoverbaptist. I noticed that some of the sites that people were griping about really had to be blatant spoofs.<\/p>\n

I suddenly had a flash of Road to Damascus insight.<\/p>\n

There are no right wing fundamentalist blogs or websites.<\/strong> There are no real creationist blogs. Intelligent design is just a joke that got out of hand. They are all just made by just a load of people with wierd senses of humour. This knowledge will restore your faith in the human race.<\/p>\n

No wait! The most obvious intuitive argument against ID was the all-too-evident lack of intelligence in so many human beings – as shown ironically by the way that a completely irrational alternative to evolution was allegedly believed by huge swathes of people.<\/p>\n

But, now science – in the shape of my empirical investigation of the existence of fundamentalist blogs – has proved that human stupidity is a false premise. Humans are rational intelligent beings after all.<\/p>\n

D’oh, so there COULD be an intelligent design behind the universe….. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
