The other thing that makes me nuts is the "Evolution is just a theory" concept that shows how ignorant they are of any concept of scientific methods whatsoever. *head desk* *head desk*
If anyone is curious in the least about the Creationism vs. Evolution debate, I recommend the book Monkey Girl by Edward Humes. It's a riveting nonfiction account of a Pennsylvania school district trying to get creationism taught in science classes. It's entertaining and very well-written. You'll learn about evolution and the creationist movement's attempts to discredit it.
Oh man. I never watched these particular videos but grew up watching plenty like them (and hearing all the ridiculous defenses of creationism and all the absurd reasons to reject evolution). Actually, just last night bf and I were watching the most recent ep of True Blood and there were a bunch of scenes from a far-right fundamentalist Christian camp. My boyfriend noticed that I was wincing (I hadn't even realized it) and teased me, "is this where you went as a kid?" And I realized, IT TOTALLY WAS. I was sent to crazy camp when I was younger. Oh God. It's so embarrassing and painful.
@cait98: Oh, I misheard. I thought he said "this is your wife to have and enjoy" and I was thinking that was a little risque for a Christian puppet show.
Though I suppose it would be Marital Having and Enjoying, which is OK with them?
@gangey: But, if Adam and Eve were the first (and only?) humans around, who was there to marry them in the eyes of God? Or did God perform the ceremony and rituals himself and that was just left out of the Bible?
@utensil42: Exactly, adn that was why that crazy-ass pastor on All Things Considered tonight doesn't want the gays to marry; because God performed the first marriage three seconds after Creation and that is how it's meant to be: a man and a woman naked and in the middle of a grove of fruit trees with an invisible deity officiating. No one who can't reproduce that shouldn't be able to get married as it would be blasphemy.

There is basically no difference between their behavior, save for a few more
