A YouTube commenter says something brilliant? How can this be?

"Well, at least she is a good christian; not biting from the tree of knowledge and all."

I got it from wickedthought who is as disgusted as I am, I'm sure.

As much as it absolutely pains me to say it, I could see an argument for this, *if* you were a True Believer. Because in theory, if you Believed, then you could maybe consider Adam and Eve as Christians, or at least definitely part of the whole Christian-Judeo religiosity thing, and they were (supposedly) the first people, and worshiped the Christian God, which would mean that there *could* be no other religion before them.

Which kinda makes all that scientificy, historical bit slightly annoying and troublesome, but hey, if you're going to disbelieve in something as big and sciency as evolution, might as well go the rest of the way, right?

Ah, but *Jesus* came long *after* all the other Gods that the Bible itself mentions.

And she doesn't say the Christian God. She doesn't say the God of Abraham. She doesn't even say Jehovah or JHVH. She says *Jesus*, specifically, repeatedly.

And this is a woman who couldn't figure out if she believed the earth was round or not without 24 hours notice and a bunch of professional PR advisors.

No, she's just stupid.

Aaah, yeah, was thinking of the Christian bit, not of the Jaaaaaysus bit. Sorry then.

Yeah, I mean even if she's a True Believer, she's leaving out the whole Old Testament! Those wackos who don't believe in evolution at least think the world is 6000 years old, not 2000.

Pure ignorance.

Evangelical doctrine holds that Jesus was a separate and distinct person before creation, so she's being consistent with her indoctrination.

Weird.

And totally wrong, too.

And stupid.

So I think my original point stands.

Ah, thank you for saying that so that I know which clip it is and can deliberately avoid it. Ugh.
