He also gave reasons as to why he would condescend that being. I'm not saying I agree with him, but he qualified his answers as an atheist. Did you really expect something different?Originally posted by Happy Hands:
What a pretentious pile of crap that answer was. He is asked to respond to a thought experiment that has him standing face to face with the Christian conception of God and he thinks he can condescend that being. If that idea of God is true, Fry would spend the majority of his time in front of the almighty evacuating his bowels and murmuring for forgiveness. He steps outside the realm of the question and imagines he is speaking to some child or mildly threatening teenager. Fry obviously has a poor conception of the Christian doctrine of God or he is just really bad at though experiments.
The reactions by the interviewer were hilarious, though.

But if he doesn't believe in God, which he doesn't, that would mean that pure evolution is the cause for that insect which evolved only to eat the eyeballs out of kids.

On one hand, you have a theory based around survival of the fittest where all organisms and species are competing against each other. The purpose of the insect is to survive, not to cause us pain. We're just very numerous and probably a good resource if you can figure out a way to harvest us...which these have. Just as humans kill tons of animals every day to survive, you know?Originally posted by UCFKnight85:

I immediately thought of Chrisknight contemplating the parallel universe residing in the lint in his belly button after eating a bunch of shrooms.Originally posted by FearTheKnight:
