Editor’s Note: When asked why, after thousands of years and millions of words, he felt that the world needed still another book arguing the case for God’s existence, Evan Sayet said:
I wanted to write a book for the lay-reader and non-believer; a book that was not only factual and persuasive but fun to read. Most of the others are so darn earnest as they attempt to litigate the case. To me, attempting to litigate against atheism is like attempting to litigate against the emperor’s clothes; once you begin to discuss hemlines and stitch-counts, you’ve already given the emperor too much credibility. With atheism, there is simply no “there” there, and this needs to not so much be debated as pointed out, ridiculed and laughed at.
Sayet, a longtime television writer (Politically Incorrect With Bill Maher) and popular political speaker, seems to have accomplished just what he set out to do. Jeremy Adams, the bestselling author of Hollowed Out: A Warning about America’s Next Generation and a recent California Teacher of the Year, concluded his review of Sayet’s new book, by saying:
Believers often purchase C.S. Lewis’s Mere Christianity to help convince their unbelieving friends and family that there is an “unmoved mover” somewhere betwixt time and eternity. That book is a classic. So, too, is this one, or at least it deserves to be. Buy it for anyone searching for answers who also has a sense of humor. They might do more than laugh—they might just be saved.

Even if someday scientists were finally able to use their combined intelligence to create life from insentient materials, all that this will have then served to have proved is that life is even possible. But no one doubts that life is possible. We’re here. In fact, the only people who still wonder if life is possible are those Woke thirty-somethings who are still living in their parents’ basements.
The question isn’t “can life exist” but rather “how did life first come to be?” and, after all of these years, the Materialists still don’t have even the very first clue. Do you know who else didn’t have even the very first clue? Whoever it was who came just before the world’s second caveman.
Dawkins, the Oxford University professor, considered by many to be the single most effective spokesmodel for the Atheists’ various origin myths, was once asked for his expert understanding as to how life might have first come into being without God.
Dawkins, who likes to be called an “evolutionary biologist” even though the chair for “propagandist” is in the history department, took a moment to compose himself and then, with that very same look of chagrin on his face that my friend Ed had had, he said that it was all just a “happy accident!”
“Happy accident” is not a scientific theory. It’s how a fifty-year-old describes his newborn child through gritted teeth. In fact, not only is “happy accident” not a scientific theory; it is the very opposite of one. It is just yet one more way the professional Atheists have for saying “Duh, I dunno…shit happens.”
We are now a full third of the way into the Big Questions upon which all of science itself is based, and while the Bible has given us the very laws and constants upon which all other science is contingent, the Atheists can still do nothing more than just point and grunt, albeit in Dawkins’ case, with a relatively charming British accent.
It’s not as if the Atheists don’t have any other theories about the origin of life on earth besides “happy accident.” After ten thousand years, of course they do. They, in fact, have exactly one left that hasn’t yet been totally debunked by that which is already known. The Atheists call their last remaining viable theory “Directed Panspermia.”
The concept behind the theory of “directed panspermia” is that a horny drag queen from outer space came to earth on a transit beam and then…oh, wait. I’m sorry. That’s The Rocky Horror Picture Show. In the Atheists’ theory, the horny space aliens came to earth on a rocketship.
Seriously, this is the Atheists’ latest, best and, since “shit happens” isn’t actually a theory, only remaining theory as to how life might have begun on Earth without God. According to the Atheists, the horny space aliens then somehow impregnated the planet and, in doing so, became not only Earth’s baby-daddies but also the universe’s very first deadbeat dads.
While the notion of horny aliens from outer space having had sex with the earth is just as absurd as is the “Flying Spaghetti Monster” that Dawkins has cynically compared to the God of the Bible, the difference is that while Jews and Christians don’t actually believe in the Flying Spaghetti Monster, the world’s leading Atheistic “scientists” — including Dawkins — really do say that they believe in flying horndogs from outer space who then had sex with the earth.
If you think I’m kidding, here’s Hargon’s comments on Overbye’s report:
The most startling revelation in Overbye’s article is that scientists have resuscitated a proposal once floated by [Francis] Crick. Dissatisfied with conventional theories of life’s beginning, Crick conjectured that aliens came to Earth in a spaceship and planted the seeds of life here billions of years ago.
Crick is no crank. He is, in fact, the legendary geneticist who was awarded the Nobel Prize for co-discovering the DNA’s double-helix design.
Crick didn’t propose the Atheists’ Flying-Horndogs-from-Outer-Space-Having-Had-Sex-With-the-Earth theory because he’d just seen a starship racing away at warp speed when Earth’s husband returned home early from work, or because he’d suddenly discovered remnants of alien sperm on the arctic ice sheets. In fact, the only evidence that supports the Atheists’ theory of horny aliens from outer space having had sex with the earth is the fact that the aliens haven’t called once since.
Crick didn’t propose FHFOS because there was any evidence for it; he proposed it wholly by default. Just as the Atheists’ totally made-up their alternative universes and additional dimensions only after having concluded that there is simply nothing in ours that could possibly provide the Materialists with an answer that would allow them to keep their prior political commitment, Crick understood that there is simply nothing on earth a Materialist can use to possibly even begin to explain how life might have first come from the lifeless without God. Once again — and as always — when you’re an Atheist, no evidence is always your best evidence, because all of the known evidence has fully debunked your every other effort.
Crick, then, only did what all good scientists do; he simply proposed the next, least implausible theory that hasn’t yet been totally debunked by the known facts, which, at this point for the Atheists, is flying horndogs from outer space having had sex with the earth. That’s it. That’s all they have left.
When Crick first proposed FHFOS in 1973 it was, of course, rejected out-of-hand by the scientific community as the wholly unsubstantiated, patent absurdity that it is. A full half-century later, though — with the quantum leap forward in technological capabilities having only further confirmed that no materialistic answer can possibly ever be found on earth without God — Crick’s theory of the Flying-Horndogs-from-Outer-Space-Having-Had-Sex-With-the-Earth is now the leading theory amongst Atheistic scientists. In fact, since “happy accident” isn’t actually a theory, FHFOS is the only remaining theory that the Atheists have left for how life might have begun on earth without God.
Here’s how Dawkins explains the “scientific” method that the Atheists use to arrive at their theory about flying horndogs:
Given the weaknesses of all theories of terrestrial genesis, Directed Panspermia should be considered a serious possibility.
That’s it. That’s the entirety of the evidence for the Atheists’ only remaining theory as to how life might have begun on earth without God; all of their previous theories were even worse. Not only is Atheistic “science” a joke; it’s actually an old one:
This guy was just such a miserable human being in every conceivable way that when he died no one could think of even a single kind word to say about him at his funeral. Finally, one of his neighbors made his way to the altar, cleared his throat and said: “His brother was even worse.”
The entire “scientific” basis upon which the Atheists’ current, best and only remaining theory as to how life might have begun on earth without God is that all of their other theories are even worse. Even worse than horny space aliens having humped a flying rock? Just how bad must those other theories be? Well, we’ll soon find out.
Meanwhile, with FHFOS having in no way advanced the scientific case for atheism, the Atheists have, once again, further made the case for God. Even when they’re just totally making up stories wholly unconstrained by the need for such pesky things as evidence and reason, the Atheists still can’t even conjure a tale that doesn’t require preexisting life (the aliens) with, in this case, the intelligence to have designed rocket ships capable of intergalactic travel. You’d think, being that advanced, they’d have also have invented the condom.
Not to be missed, then, is that just as the Atheists have already conceded the most essential elements of the science of Intelligent Design with regard to the first of the Big Questions by admitting that the universe simply had to have been created by something or someone outside of our physical laws and/or perceivable dimensions, they have now conceded the most essential element of the second question as well. By their embrace of FHFOS, the Atheists have admitted that life could not have started on earth without a preexisting and intelligent lifeform from somewhere else.
Once again, then, both sides are in total agreement about what it is that the known science shows and where it is that that science leads; the only difference is found in the fact that, while believers in the science of Intelligent Design and the revelations of the Bible are convinced that that preexisting intelligent life is from one of those universes and/or dimensions that the Atheists have already been forced to concede, the Atheists’ combined efforts, cutting edge technology and many and massive computers has led them to conclude that it must have been a couple of horny aliens, cruising the galaxies in their rocketship, until they took sexual advantage of a planet that they saw was looking a little blue.
