This is a 1 on 1 debate. I'd suggest people besides me and lewisnotmiller not reply in this thread, but even if you do, I couldn't keep a straight enough face about this subject to report anyone.
So, let's begin the debate...
Me: "If a space alien ship landed, would or would not the space aliens like strawberry rhubarb pie?"
@lewisnotmiller : "They'd like it. They'd declare it the second best pie they could imagine in the entire universe. And after they've eaten it, all that would be left would be a few strawberries they'd picked out and tossed to the side."
My response:
That may be true. But the strawberries were likely tossed to the side with the rest of the piece because the aliens got indigestion while listening to Earth music, particularly Billie Eilish. It doesn't prove strawberry rhubarb pie isn't the best.
Me: "Can eating strawberry rhubarb pie be considered a spiritual experience?"
Lewisnotmiller: "Yes. It's spiritual in the same way that watching the birth of the kid you love less is."
My response: Since you're an atheist, you eat babies, so I'd argue you only judge based on taste. That's a poor way of judging a child.
Me: "Will there be strawberry rhubarb pie in heaven?"
Lewisnotmiller: "Hah! I'm an atheist, so I'm more interested in whether there is apple and rhubarb pie in hell."
My response: I've got no response.
Me: "Are the pyramids a result of eating strawberry rhubarb pie?"
Lewisnotmiller: "The pyramids are the result of assistance from the aliens in question 1. But since they appear to have been eating rhubarb and strawberry pie (and tossing out the strawberries) I'm going to have to say Yes on this one."
My response: Billie Eilish wants a word with you.
