The avocado is proof God exists

by @ 9:26 am. Filed under In Defense of The Faith, religion

The avocado fruit makes no sense from the avocado plant’s point of evolutionary view. After all, why have a nutrient-rich, yummy mix of vitamin-filled flesh if that all gets eaten up by fruit flies when it sits on the jungle floor after falling off the avocado tree? The big seed in the middle is really the only thing left after the fruit flies are done. So why doesn’t the avocado plant just grow the big seed in the middle? The answer: God’s plan. As with so many other fruits, the avocado is delicious, showing an alignment with our taste buds that can only be explained by design. It provides fat stores for humans and essential other nutrients. Then, when a human is done with it, all he needs to do is to plant it and grow another plant, which makes more food! This is a design made for people. The evolutionist view of it makes no sense. The avocado is proof god exists.

    Really? What is durian proof of, then? That God stinks?

  2. Avocadio Says:

    “…how many licks does it take to get to the center of it…”

  3. Bullshitshield Says:

    So the reason that opium, marijuana, war….

    exists,…is because of intricate design…a GOD?

    wow…interesting perspective sir, horrible argument, maybe you need a bit of “Gods Plan” before typing.

  4. biologist Says:

    That was a bit rough there, above…but i do agree on the argument.

    You cant base Gods existance on a fruit, and btw the avocado is, after it falls, used as a natural fertilizer and it steers away potential prey from the actual plant, and fools the animal in eating the avocado instead. What is left behind the feast is a seed, that is exposed to sunlight, dirt, and sorrounding nutrients.

    So in effect, it does make sense from an evolutionary standpoint.

    Since the avocado argument fails, I guess we must have faith.
