Here's one for the fundamentalists?

Dear fundamentalist christian,

If god created us from clay, how come we don't turn into mud whenever it rains?

Kind Regards, the sarcastic atheist...

Update:

Ok then, if god created us from DUST, how come we don't turn into mud every time it rains?

Update 2:

superb9006: My parents did send me to school, we didn't learn about fundamentalist claptrap, what school did you go to?

Update 3:

Addition: I hope you can see that this question is in jest

Update 4:

i think some of you lower down answerers have taken this WAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY out of context...

Update 5:

I don't vilify people based on their race, colour or sexual orientation

    I would like to add to this question... if God can do anything, can God make a rock so heavy that even He cannot move it?

    Dear Athiest...

    I find your sarcasm amusing. I think you should check your chemistry. When we are broken down, we are truly made from the earth. We are mostly water and carbon.

    Yet, let's go along with your mud theory. Or your clay theory. Can you not take mud and build a house that will survive the rain? Can you not take clay and make it into a vase, fire it and it is a work of art and a thing of beauty.

    I think the real question is why you seem to enjoy tweeking Christians. Yes there are some outspoken and annoying Christians. However, the majority of true believing Christians are your neighbors and sometimes your friends. Yes Christians have participated in horrors over the last 2000 years. However you should never judge a philosphy by its misapplication.

    Why do you go out of your way to mock or disprove? Persecution of Christians has begun. We are told to expect it. It is unfortunate that you are small minded enough to engage in the persecution, although only verbally I hope, of any person regardless of their race, color, or religion.

    God maded us from dust and magic so the mud became fused into ppl. u can only destroy by ppl by fire or by blowing up, not by water unless its a deluge, LOL then they drownded like when God punished ppl in The Flood. But ppl still didnt dissolve they just got washed away.

    Maybe Holy Water maybe would kill a demon?

    EDIT: THE DUST WAS FUSED? GEDDIT? DUH.

    You believe were made from particles science calls 'atoms', which is the same thing as dust in OT language. DUH! Why dont u ask scientists why we dont turn to monkey atoms evrytime we eat primordial soup? LOL!!!!!11

    dear stupid atheists (if may say so).

    instead focusing on mocking people, start to also...like..think. you're the thinkers not us, and you constantly show us ...you don't do it.

    God created man from clay means something. You don't suppose we're made from clay. Otherwise we'd be like...muddy and stuff, right ? So, one sees it's not literal. But it probably means that they have made him of Earthly substances, material stuff, hard stuff, the hard things (evidences) that you sooo adore.

    So yes, we're not etherals in our physical bodies, but hard, flesh and bone, and contain inside elements of the Earth (check biology if you don['t like spiritual sciences enough).

    And for people who believe more, one can also say that God is so evolved that it can do anything that he has in mind. Cute, ain't it ? :))

    If you read Gen.2:7 it say that God created man out of the DUST & not clay of the earth, & when you die, you will return back into dust.

    Yes, we are created from dust -- we shouldn't get ideas above our station!

    We are all water-soluble, but it doesn't happen instantly... it starts with wrinkly feet, and wrinkly faces...

    How come bones don't disolve while they're inside us?

    Lol! Good one.

    If God took a rib from Adam to make Eve, how come men have the same number of ribs as women?

    Dear atheists, If your parents sent you to school, why don;t you use the knowledge gained there?
