Do you think we should tell him that chimps – who clearly know a thing or two about bananas – open them from the opposite end? (They do – watch them sometime) Or would that be absolute and incontrovertible proof that we can’t possibly be related species?
In any case, you could still argue that the hand and the banana fit because a process of evolution made it that way. Millions of years of humans – and before us apes and monkeys – preferring the bananas that fit well in the hand…
Actually, wild bananas aren’t necessarily as convenient as the Cavendish, which is what you get in supermarkets. For one thing, they are full of seeds. Cultivated varieties of banana do not really evolve. They are all clones which can only be propagated by taking cuttings. I wrote a post about it if you’re interested.
Heh, the thing I love about this is that he has just unwittingly argued that oral sex is divine.
Speaking as a Christian, I’d just like to say
(a) What a nutjob
(b) Oral sex is divine. :)
**edit*** heh
(he’s going to make me delete this, I know)
Who is this plonker? No, on second thoughts don’t tell me – I don’t want to know.

Am I extremely childish, or is there something amusing about the way he says “the contents don’t squirt in your face”? Or perhaps both.
Oh God(!), and it’s just perfect that he looks exactly like Ned Flanders
wait a minute, is he seriously arguing from the point of “LOOKS LIKE == MUST BE”? What a retard.

Is it just me, or does this look exactly like something Chris Morris would make?
If it was Chris Morris, it would involve bonobos…
I just kept expecting him to say, “There’s no evidence for it, but it is a scientific fact”.
I see where I’ve been going wrong – I’ve been eating them pointing *away* from my face.
You must be a child of the Devil then… obviously.
