This video of creationist Ray Comfort is so old but I still can't help but laugh at it. It's utterly ignorant while also being unintentionally gay at the same time.
I don't see anything wrong with believing in creators, what is absurd though is Comfort's ridiculous theorizing about a piece of fruit, one which actually was cultivated for thousands of years by humans to the shape and seedlessness that he remarks on.
This clip is, sadly, the sort of thinking that is so dominant within fundamentalist conservative Christian media. It's best to leave science to the scientists and leave the preaching to the preachers but there's such a misbegotten desire of the latter to speak to the former.
I have a personal tradition of sharing this clip among friends and acquaintances every December so that the internet never forgets the legend of Ray Comfort and the Banana.
Let's also give Kirk Cameron his due for his supporting actor role in this spin on the Ambiguously Gay Duo.
Worth noting here for those who have better things to do than read about the history of bananas (ie not me):
