Can evolution explain...
Why we like to watch the sunset?
A new common question asked by theists... Other variants on this: 'How does evolution explain why we like flowers?' 'How does evolution explain why we like colours?' etc Any good responses to this? Try to keep it simple  they dont understand big words. |

Divinityofreason, to the above questions I would reply 'the same reason dogs like liking their own bollocks, it's evolution'.
Religion, dont tread on me. |

can evolution explain why you are such a wanker?
no. One of the most irrational of all the conventions of modern society is the one to the effect that religious opinions should be respected....That they should have this immunity is an outrage. There is nothing in religious ideas, as a class, to lift them above other ideas. On the contrary, they are always dubious and often quite silly. H. L. Mencken |

Wankernesstude is an emergent feature of a system that is sufficiently complex to support cognition yet inadequate to deal with non-supernatural reality due to evolution.

And, the question is why did we evolve that way? Personally I couldn't think of a response (but that doesn't warrant the existence of god or the truth of the bible). |

I'm delighted to have evolved to occasionally get my mouth round this particularly fine canine scrotum:-
