Sharks never went to church either, and they’ve survived all five of the extinction events.

[–] fluxion@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago (2 children)

They do go to church actually. All surviving species do. You were just so absorbed in your sinful activities that you never took the time to learn more about them.

The ocean is god's blindspot.

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Because the ocean has other gods.

Also dinosaurs were around for about 160 million years .... our species ancestors have only been around for about two million and the ones that even remotely look and act like us have only been around for about 50,000 years.

And it has ninjas!

How do we know? Dinos ruled the Earth for 165 million years. Humans have only been around for 300,000 years. For all we know, Dinos might have even built spaceships and left the planet to colonize other star systems in the Delta Quadrant.

They ate, fucked, and generally dominated the planet for millions of years until they were taken out by an external factor.

How's humanity doing for comparison? We have cell phones, religion, racisim, mysogony, wars, and microwavable bacon. Oh, and we'll probably end up destroying ourselves because we choose to live where its either too hot or too cold.

Dinosaurs never gave me twenty dollars, neither, and see what happened to 'em. That's not a threat, it's just a fact.

I did hear of one that asked to borrow about tree fiddy.

Therapods live! We call them birds. Stay out of church and you might fly like an angel some day 👍

[–] Annoyed_Crabby@monyet.cc 3 points 2 years ago

Or be as mysterious as Horseshoe crab and coelacanth👌

[–] edgemaster72@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is this why people insist birds aren't real?

How the fuck do they know? Maybe they did!

[–] Meho_Nohome@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

Maybe they did go to church, but I bet it was the wrong one.

[–] eezeebee@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Five services! Is that normal? I remember one, sometimes two, when I was a kid going to church.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Look... do you want the asteroid to come back?

[–] FireTower@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I thought two was normal. A morning and afternoon service.

[–] reallyzen@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Where I live (France countryside) there's only one priest for the 4 nearest towns ; he's rotating churches like 2 on Saturday then 2 on Sunday.

Guess on weekdays he's scratching his balls or ~~something~~ someone else's.

[–] guyrocket@kbin.social 2 points 2 years ago

Those damned dinos.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I thought Jesus rode on them?
