Dara O'Briain on the Bible Creationism

In this clip, comedian Dara O'Briain offers his insights into the world of biblical literalism and creationism.

A few quotes:

For God’s sake stop taking it literally – it’s only the Bible, it’s not Gospel.

Three arguments against God making us exactly as we are:
  1. Have a look at yourself… This is the same guy who apparently made mountaintops and sunsets. What kind of off-day exactly was he having when he threw you together?
  2. If we were truly created by God, why do we still occasionally bite the insides of our own mouths?
  3. The appendix. Why would he put it in you when it does nothing except randomly kill you?

I enjoyed his Tickling the English book over Christmas and I'm going to see him in Bristol in March.
