    I can't watch what is obviously going to be hilarious because he makes my brain spontaneously combust.

    She is gorgeous, funny and brilliant. I adore her and I want her to be my friend. Also, I like that "hella" has made it all the way from the SF Bay Area to Romania. Finally, HOW DOES SHE GET HER HAIR LIKE THAT OH MY GOD?!

    I should make a video against people taking marriage advice from movies starring Kirk Cameron. That movie was pretty popular down here, but we still have one of the top five divorce rates in the county.

    Arguing with people like this is more fun if you don't do it to their face. Because in their mind, they have Jesus on their side, and nothing you can say matters one whit.

    I'm down with not debating Creationists, because they make my vision white out with fury, but I think we shouldn't mistake not engaging morons for doing nothing... It seems like there's still a lot of work to be done in terms of convincing school boards not to cave to creationist pressure and scrap teaching evolution in biology, or give equal time to creationist principles that are really a thin veil for specifically Christian creationism.

    What we need here is for the FSM to weigh in.

    @wtfox?!: yes yes yes yes yes. All engaging these people on a personal level will do is raise your blood pressure, but we need to make sure their sphere of influence does not expand at all costs

    @wtfox?!: Yes, she isn't debating them (by which Dawkins means in person in some sort of formal event). She's actually doing what Dawkins does -- taking apart their own arguments with the facts.

    I loved her, before I saw this video. She still has some interesting, intelligent things to say, but I don't know if I can get past this.

    So, everything Hitler believed was Darwin's fault, because he perverted Darwin's beliefs?

    I guess that means every person who ever burned someone at the stake or drove them out of their country because of their religion, or discriminated and abused a woman or person of color because of scripture, and everyone who murdered or attacked an abortion provider in this country in the name of the Bible, anyone who persecuted someone because of their own interpretation or misappropriation of something in the Bible, all of those people's crimes can be blamed on... God?

    As aag mentioned, This woman is dispensing far too much passion on far too undeserving a subject - Kirk won't change, but what a firey resolve, she has!

    Arguing with a Creationist is sort of like arguing with that guy on the train who says that the Jews are sending TV signals into his brain.

    So any thing Hitler ever believed to be possibly true is the fault of the person who advanced whatever it was he believed?! Even if there is absolutely no actual connection? FAIL.

    My problem with this is that she didn't really say anything that wasn't the obvious response (or just silly--ok, "ssssssnake" was kinda funny). I only got about half way through, since I was bored with it. It just didn't seem particularly clever, at least in the first couple of minutes. Maybe it got better?
