All YECs are Dead

Zor · Post by **Zor** » 2005-05-16 12:17am

At Dawn in New York, suddenly and without warning. Every single Muslim/Jewish/Christian Young Earth Creationist (people who beleive that Genisis exactly is how the Universe was created) over the age of 18 turns into a reddish brown organic paste with the consistancy of instant pudding. There Death is painless and takes about 30 seconds.

What happens and how do you feal about this?

Is this world wide or just in New York?

Either way it would be a terrible tragedy, you don't deserve to die because you hold some stupid belief. How many of us would loose friends, family, coworkers, etc over this? I consider life to be a little bit more valuable than winning the war against creationism.

My two best friends would be dead. I would be horribly depressed.

YECs constitute almost half of the American population. The chaos would be unreal, and the world economy would collapse. Some Muslim countries would be virtually annihilated.

Uh...if you beleieve in evolution, the big bang, etc but that it was initiated by God...would you die? Like intelligent design? Would it be ALL religions, like Hinduism too?

Cause i mean, this could kill off a huge portion of human civilization. Needless to say, it'd most certainly destroy several countries almost completely. And what about their children? That'd be like a couple hundred million orphans or more.

No, Only Christians, Jewish people and Muslims are affected.

Ok...well i'd survive, but it's not a big plus since my mom would be dead and my grandma, and my best friend and his mom, and my girlfriend and her mom. I'm already easily depressed i'd hate to even imagine that.

I can definitely say a good portion of human civilization would disappear. There are about a billion Christians and Muslims each right?

How about a better and more interesting scenario; what if everyone who is a YEC suddenly becomes impotent/infertile?

Thats a somewhat better situation. It would still cause the dramatic depopulation of many of the planet's nations over the next few generations, but at the rate were reproducing, that might not be such a bad thing.

Either way, now or later, such an event would be devastating for mankind. Also on a personal level, how many freinds, family, loved ones would be horribly effected. I mean most people, regaurdles sof beleifs, are harmless...why not something less deadly like they'd all disappear and be transported to some Earthlike planet elsewhere in the galaxy.

I mean if you HAVE to get rid of them, or whatever, at least let them survive unharmed elsewhere, and you could survive unharmed here, and while still devastating to mankind population-wise it'd be far more comforting to their loved one's left behind to know they are still alive and well off on planet Omicron-VI.

Well I only know one YEC and I hate his guts.

So my friends and family would be safe.

But what this would do to the world, america would lose a shitload of people and Europe some but nowhere close.

I, personally, would consider just what the fuck it meant that so many people could face a quite abnormal event (turning into a paste and such...) based only on their beliefs. A quite logical conclusion in this case would be to assume that it's the rapture, and that the bloody YECs were right. Honestly, what the fuck could it be but a very powerful sentient being that could eliminate people based on belief?

CaptainChewbacca · Post by **CaptainChewbacca** » 2005-05-16 04:43am

I bet those left might think it justified the existence of God or was a rapture or something.

^Just realized Zero said it first.

18-Till-I-Die · Post by **18-Till-I-Die** » 2005-05-16 04:47am

Yes i was thinking that too.

I mean...actually, aside from the way it happens, the idea of everyone who beleives a specific religion vanishing in a single day is the definition of the Raptures.

Zero · Post by **Zero** » 2005-05-16 04:52am

It's a sensible conclusion. If people were eliminated purely on the basis of belief, it must be some very powerful intelligent entity.. what the hell else COULD it be?

Especially since all of us Intelligent Design people are left feeling that maybe we weren't quite holy enough, and are going to tell everyone. Man, my church group meeting the next Friday would certainly be akward.

"Tonight, we're going to figure out what we did wrong. Any ideas?"

What sort of percentage of Russians are YEC? I could see unaffected and less effected nations going on a land grab in the middle east, there'd be a race to claim as much of the now virtually empty nations - and what an amazing bounty, the natural resources plus an intact infrastructure, virtually no resistance, no pesky "insurgents" to worry about.

I would imagine that the US military is disproportionately made up of YEC compared to the base US population. Does anyone have any estimates for military personnel specifically?

What percentage of Israelis are YEC, compared to Palestinians? I'd imagine the Israelis would come off signficantly better - ironically they might be the ones finally able to return Israel to its biblical borders.

I would realize that one of my best friends would now be an orphan, and several people who I've known since birth and loved are dead, and break down in tears, most likely.

Also, this would probably create a few billion more Hindus, since it would clearly indicate their existence.

What if the death of the YECs would be something truly horrible. Like half an hour of violent spasms Exorcist style, followed by profuse bleeding from every orifice until they bleed to death and once they are dead their corpses would be consumed with in minutes by a swarm of maggots, locusts and other creepy crawly things that burst out from the corpse itself. This is unlike to be interpreted as gods method of saving his most faithfull followers from the rapture.

That's even more horrifying. What could have done this? And why won't It target atheists or agnostics or non-fundie christians next?

my ethical twinges are reading a 0 on this one, but it definitly would screw up the economy.

Being glad for the dissapearence of a good portion of the world's idiots is one thing, but I'm sure that "realistically" everyone is going to need to ponder that this thing could happen at all requires a re-evaluation of our view of the world <g>

I, for one, would be disturbed to be a pawn in a world that Zor's hipotaticle scenarios are manifest. RAR!

Shit, that's hilarious! And you all can consider me a very sick puppy.

I'd pay for that to happen!
