The whole thing
The whole thing is funny. It is as simple-minded and stupid as anything I've ever heard.
I want to keep it somehow for future reference.

The banana's Designer is known.
But seriously, can you prove it's not true?
As noted in one of the links (I think it was), we KNOW who designed the banana. And we know they didn't pick fitting the hand as one of the criteria.
Humans designed the banana shown in the film. It is, as shown there, very, very different from the natural banana. The banana shown in the film doesn't even have seeds; it can not reproduce on it's own.
RR, you really shouldn't try to defend that film. It us utterly stupid from start to finish. It is really quite wonderfully so.

Re: The banana's Designer is known.
I am not defending the film. I am just pointing out how some of the people that they interview think, and why they think that way. Why they have no clue about the gospel.
I don't see that your "prove it's not true" was refering to anything but the design of the banana claim. It certainly looked like you were defending the banana claim. Could you explain the format of your post? Message 55

A good show
I don't know about the whole banana thing, but over all it is a good show.
I thought you weren't defending it? It starts to sound like it.
You know about the banana thing now. You'be been supplied the information.
The show is utterly laughable. The intellectual level would be appropriate in a pre-school (at best).

Re: A good show
It makes people aware of the gospel, and what it means. It brings to light the gift that God gave us and sending his son.
As I recall, the stated intention of the video was to help true believers convince atheists. It seem you think that is it's purpose and that it is good at it.
However, let's say there are two kinds of atheists; the utterly stupid and the moderately smart. The even a little bit smart will simply laugh at the idiocy of the video and have their views of true believers confirmed still further (if they have been exposed to some of those on a site like this ).
The stupid ones might say "Wow, I hadn't thought of that." Of course, the first time they hand a banana to an atheist who is of the slightly smart type they will have the stupidity of the video pointed out and be that much less likely to be fooled next time.
All in all, a video that might be very good for fooling the true believers into feeling good but not one that will be useful for convincing anyone not already convinced (or very stupid).
