Bio Apocalypse - A comic book drawn by a 6th grade student. - General

Nothing, irrelevant to the analogy.

What is the Christmas Special, in your analogy, Barblunder?

Scientology.

what the fuck is wrong with this kid

[QUOTE=Barblunder;30411177]Things with the same purpose should be compared the most rigorously.

No shit, it's because gods don't exist and it's impossible to prove that something doesn't exist. Attributing the existence of everything in the universe to some stupid, anthropocentric idea like a cosmic consciousness/will or worse yet a fully formed abrahamic god who has "created humans in his image" is seriously just shockingly, awfully irrational. I'll admit that there is a chance that this is the case just as I would be forced to admit the possibility that Kill Bill volume 2 never actually came out, Tarantino died before its release, and as a result I went catatonic and everything I've experienced since then is a product of my own delusions. It's "possible", but in the realm of infinite possibilities, "possible" isn't really far removed from impossible in many cases.[/QUOTE] Yeah the idea of an abrahamic god is stupid beyond belief. I don't know why we humans think we are so special. It's possible that there was a higher being that made our realm, but there's no way such a being would focus on our petty emotions, problems and the like.

Consciousness is rather narrow in application. It has developed simply because it useful for survival. I haven't heard many convincing explanations as to why a consciousness would be ruling our universe. How did it get there? By what laws of science? One of the most amazing leaps of logic in religion is the belief in an immaterial god. Material is matter - that which is real. If something isn't quantifiable matter or energy, it cannot exist, objectively. Insisting that there is something complex and rooted in matter like a consciousness that exists outside of the "realm of matter" (whatever that means) is silly. If some kind of "higher being" did exist, somehow, it would almost certainly be primarily concerned with self replication/perpetuation above all else, anyways.

[QUOTE=CheeserCrice;30413341]I'm not trying to offend anybody calm yourself down.[/QUOTE] does "calm down" just mean "I'm done with the discussion"? I don't think I could feel too much calmer at the moment

Holy fuck, this shit is deep, especially for a 6th grader.

The kids verbose as all hell and has a decent imagination, but seriously, it's not that good. [editline]12th June 2011[/editline] Fucking amazing artist though damn.

I want a Thunderchild 3000.

This kid is a genius.

He should print up this story, bind it and mail it to every major Hollywood producer. He could direct it himself too, sign all his paperwork in crayon and make an incredibly awesome, CGI movie. It'd be shot like avatar.

The best way to improve this is to add in a little subtlety about the messages. Also, what's with all the nukes? Seriously, you'd think that earth was made entirely out of uranium.

This kid is strange, but a genius. [i]He will rule the world.[/i]

The only problem I had with this is that he mentioned that humanity had colonized the moon and mars yet mars was never mentioned nor seen after that.

lol @ the ass on africa shitting everywhere

This kid is amazing, and people were worried that a generation raised on memes and the internet wouldn't turn out ok. This kid gives me hope for the future.

Holy shit. When I was that young I wrote a story about dog people having intergalactic warfare with cat people, this blows that right out of the water. Give this kid a medal.

Thou shalt not put science above religion Thou shalt not put religion above science :unsmith: Beautiful man...

Good for a sixth-grader, but let's be honest - the story and message don't really hold up in the end.

I had a lot of comics that I made (none as extreme as this) in third grade, such as the Japanese Neo-Nazi robot samurai warriors that attacked America and wiped out 66.6% of the population of the world, then made a Frankenstein monster out of Tojo, Mussolini, and Hitler. The survivors formed together to make a Churchill-Roosevelt-Stalin monster and the two monsters had a street fighting match in which the Allied monster one by pile driving the Axis monster off the Sears tower into the windshield of a Toyota Camry. It's a shame I can't find the original anywhere, although I did find scraps of the remade version that I drew up in eighth grade. The remade version included more violence and better grammar.

he's got a good vocabulary for a 6th grader

Wow, that was awesome. I remember when I was a kid I used to fill notebooks just drawing random comics. I can't seem to recreate that experience of making fantastic stories now that I'm 17.... I wish I was a kid again. :sigh:
