a joke
There once was a very smart and religous girl. One day, her teacher said, "Can you see the trees?" The little girl replied, "Yes." The teacher said, "Can you see the grass, sun, moon and stars?" The girl was starting to get confused. "...Yes?" The teacher started to explain. "You see, you can see all of those things. That means they're real." The girl math her head. "But God is real!" The teacher shook her head. "That means He's not real. You can't see him." The girl looked at her funny. "Can you see your brain?" She asked confidently, now knowing what to say. "...No." The girl smiled. "That means you don't have one."

Re: a joke
It seems that the teacher is inferring from the premises
∀x: If you can see x, then x is real.
You cannot see God.
the conclusion
∴ God is not real.
THAT IS NOT A VALID DEDUCTION!! STUPID TEACHER!!
Yes, I know its a joke. I know its meant to be funny. 
But if a joke offends my sense of mathematical and logical truthfulness, then Im sorry, I just wont be amused. 
For I am like the crew of the Holoship in the first episode of Series V of Red Dwarf. I despise stupidity wherever I see it!

Re: a joke
no she is not saying that god is not real but she is saying that the way the teacher 'proved' it is incorrect.

Re: a joke
Thats what I meant.
In any case, I probably neednt be so angry with the teacher, since the teachers stupidity is already exposed in the joke by the little girl.

Re: a joke
Yeah, its just that when I see a glaringly egregious piece of stupidity, I cant help commenting on it and denouncing it even if someone else has already done so. Like the crew of the Holoship, I am legendarily arrogant.
