Also the source of this little beauty:

The guy he was talking to (I believe he was the president of some atheist group) made that face.

Have you ever seen the rain. Coming down. Sunny day?

Checkmate science nerds.

I have felt electricity multiple times. It is never fun, but you definitely can feel it.

When I was a kid I used to shock myself with these lighter igniter things all the time. It was fun and didn’t really hurt.

True. I’ve shocked myself with those and put a nine volt battery to my tongue, neither of which are that painful and can be fun. I was more stuck on getting shocked by full mains current which hurts like hell and is anything but fun.

Your suspicions are confirmed. I have indeed worn wool socks and touched a metal item.

At first I had a lot of questions, but the Bible verse at the end cleared them all up.

This is a real textbook by Bob Jones University for home-schooling creationists. It’s just called “Science 4” and can be found on Amazon.

nobody has ever seen, heard or felt it

I’ve done all of those things. Seen lightning bolts and heard their thunder, have heard the hum of transformers or the whine of the lines themselves and arcing bolts of electricity from broken ones or Tesla coils. I’ve been electrocuted both from static electricity, and once when I was cleaning lint out from behind my washing machine.

You can see it. You can hear it. And you definitely can feel it. It fuckinf hurts!

You know what you can’t see, hear and feel? God.

…Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain…

Dumbasses never heard of lightning?

Next week on Stupid Shit Evangelicals Actually Believe: “Men have one fewer rib than women, because Space Dad used one of Adam’s ribs to create Eve. This cannot be disproven because there is no way to see inside a human body.”

Not only have they heard of lightning, it’s in the Bible quote at the bottom of the page!

Just baffling.
