Images that make you laugh

The photo on the cover of this book is flipped - apparently so that the title doesn’t overlap the Capitol building. The result is the largest gathering of left handed frisbee people ever.

Oh, and I’m in this photo. My face is right behind the “cto” of the author’s name. View attachment 48407
Who knew you were such a handsome fella?
 
Opinions needed:
I'm wanna use you folks as a focus group.
I'm gonna upload this graphic to CafePress, maybe sell a few t-shirts, mugs, and stuff.

What is your first impression?
Is your take on it pro evolution or pro bible myth?
Who might agree with it, believers, non-believers, feminists, or women in general? And why.
Thanks for your input.

Looks like religious tripe to me.
Someone’s gonna like it for that reason.
 
Brilliant! It's a declaration of independence from every self-appointed paternalistic authority who ever wanted to keep us ignorant, and a thank-you to every rebel who ever got punished for undermining that authority by spilling the beans, from Eve and Prometheus to Galileo and Edward Snowden.
 
I don't think people will get your point. I get it, but it is too nuanced and will be misunderstood.

Hell, yes. ❤️ Eve eating the apple represents gaining knowledge in disobedience to an unjust authority. I love talking about this with religious believers because then I ask them why their god is so afraid of people knowing stuff. There's no virtue in ignorance. Ignorance is not innocence. In fact, ignorance can be deadly.

The world is so steeped in patriarchal callousness and narcissism. I think images like this need to find their way in front of people's eyeballs as much as possible. It's also an excellent image in terms of design and artfulness, by the way. Very nice.

Would you let me share this? Or better yet, post the link to the merch once you get it going and I'll share that on social media and in some of my menstruation groups. :)
 
Then he rapes her and gets away with it because she’s a woman. The correct response is to simply blow his ass away. I’d vote to acquit.
We all have to gauge how safe we are in speaking up to misogynists. Even using a fake name over the internet is not totally safe.

but if we are safe to do so, hell yes, we tell those depraved fucks exactly that, that they are weak ass mediocre little dumbass manbabies if they brutalize girls and women, and we say it as often and as loudly as possible. We are not giving rabid incels a clear playing field and running away.

Nuts. That's what I'm afraid of.
A few years ago I made a button:
"Proud descendant of the lady who ate from the tree of KNOWLEDGE (thanks grandma 10 to the x power)"
But there was confusion because of the word 'proud'. "is that some kind of gay slogan?" I couldn't sell any.

That's how I see it. It's ironic. Xians take the wrong message from Eve's story. Eve is our(humans) hero, not a villain or patsy of Satin.

It's also an excellent image in terms of design and artfulness... ...Would you let me share this? Or better yet, post the link...
I wrote the words, but not the art. Share away.
I haven't decided yet if I'm gonna upload to CafePress. Are sales links allowed here?

Yes, we allow members to post their wares and services: https://iidb.org/forums/community-member-wares-and-services.70/ :)

And the Eve story is great but only for that one thing. She stayed and mothered God's people. Not that I would fault her for it, but it's not the story of a free woman. Lilith, Adam's first wife, is the one for that story.

Well, neither was man. Man was a lowly servent, not anything special.

Narrative of the fall has several competing interpretations. Personally I find the serpent as the hero of God's deception.
