Makes as much sense as the banana argument.


GWB publicly condoning torture.
I grew up during the tail end of the cold war. Torture was something the Soviets did. We were better than that.
And sure, I knew the CIA did stuff like that under the table, but it was never OK.
It’s what got me interested in politics, and why I feel that we shouldn’t try to hide the bad things we’ve done when we teach history. Knowing what we’re capable of is necessary to keep ourselves from repeating the mistakes of the past.
That the banana is proof of creationism because it’s perfect for the human hand.
Problem with that argument is that bananas aren’t natural. They’ve been bred and cloned to get to the shape they have. The original fruit wasn’t very friendly.
