No Heaven: Kirk Cameron says Lennon and Hawking don’t know what they are talking about

I love how Kirk Cameron has become the de facto “go to” dummy whenever the media needs a kooky comment about something related to Christianity. Like a kicked puppy coming back for more punishment, Cameron is always ready to oblige with his version of a “quip.” Today Cameron told TMZ that Stephen Hawking has nothing to back his claim that there is no Heaven and that it is merely a “fairy story for people afraid of the dark.”

“Professor Hawking is heralded as ‘the genius of Britain,’ yet he believes in the scientific impossibility that nothing created everything and that life sprang from non-life.”

He adds, “Why should anyone believe Mr. Hawking’s writings if he cannot provide evidence for his unscientific belief that out of nothing, everything came?”

So how does John Lennon fit in to all this? Cameron explains:

“[Hawking] says he knows there is no Heaven. John Lennon wasn’t sure. He said to pretend there’s no Heaven. That’s easy if you try.  Then he said he hoped that someday we would join him.”

“Such wishful thinking reveals John and Stephen’s religious beliefs, not good science.”

He’s an actor, so he knows a thing or two about science. It’s settled, then!

Kirk Cameron’s “Evolutionary” Pains

image
 
Well, summer’s over.  I never made it back to Camp Firefly, or enjoyed another night of possibly anti-semitic television with Kirk-‘n’-Chelsea, but I still want to catch up with them this fall, when they

plan to subvert ‘Darwin Day’ on November 19, 2009—a date marking the 150th anniversary of the publishing of Charles Darwin’s “Origin of Species.”  Cameron says that he and like-minded activists plan to deliver 50,000 copies of an altered version of Darwin’s book to students at dozens of U.S. universities.

Cameron explains that this “very special” edition of the “Origin of Species” will include an introduction explaining “Adolf Hitler’s undeniable connection” to the theory of evolution, and highlighting “Darwin’s racism” and “his disdain for women.”  Cameron’s edition also exposes the “many hoaxes” of evolutionary theory, while presenting a “balanced view of Creationism.”

PARADOX ALERT: if you’d like to hear how Cameron thinks our (theoretically) constitution-backed country is stripping us of our many “God-given” liberties, click here.  You’ll be far more amused, though, watching ZOMGitsCriss’ video response below.

And when you’re through, mark your calendars for November 19th.  But rather than going all “town hall” on Cameron’s book giveaway, why not do as as ZOMGitsCriss suggests: simply take as many copies as your ape paws can grab, and use that intro for something less meta and more physical.  I know Darwin would approve!

Willie Aames Proves God Is Dead

 
You remember Willie Aames, don’t you?  Right.  That Willie Aames, he of Eight Is Enough and Charles In Charge fame.  Oh, and Bibleman—the ongoing “adventures of a man transformed by the word of God.”  I remember getting my first taste of the B-Man one summer at Kirk Cameron‘s Camp Firefly.  It was “TV night.”  Me beside Chelsea.  Hmm, what episode was it—“Jesus, Our Savior,” or “Lead Us Not Into Temptation?”  Ah, well, I forget.  Camp! 

Anyway, thanks to YouTube, we can all catch up with Aames’ armor-clad creation.  Now put aside, if you can, the above clip’s anti-semitic stabs at humor.  It’s Aames’ donning of that suit in clips like this one that I’m sure contributed to his

Thanksgiving Day suicide attempt after filing bankruptcy, having his car repossessed and his wife of 22 years, Mayla Upton, asking for a divorce.  The former child star had been sober for 20 years when he left his Kansas home depressed and shaken, and rented a room in Los Angeles from a friend, stealing a bottle of Jack Daniels.  Aames was also taking antidepressants and anti-anxiety medication when he put a knife to his throat and cut himself in six places.

Wow, sad—six places?!  But consider this: unlike the possibly mythic Job, Aames is a very real, flesh-and-blood vessel spreading God’s word.  To children.  On television, no less.  If such misery could beset him, one of God’s best Generals, what hope is there for we common foot-soldiers?  What God would inflict such torment?  Well, maybe no God would.  No God at all. 

Bless you, Willie Aames, atheists everywhere should be singing your praises—or something like that.  Hey, stay off those knives!
