My rotator cuff injury disproves Christianity

Somehow, I managed to bruise my rotator cuff. I suspect this somehow relates to rock-climbing and not being strong enough in a thousand different ways. However, I will use this opportunity constructively to provide some compelling evidence that Christianity is bunk.

Observe the diagram to the right. You will note that the rotator cuff is a tendon supporting the humerus. You will also note that the rotator cuff runs UNDER the scapula (shoulder blade), between it and the ball of the humerus. This means that it is incredibly prone to being pinched by the two bones, resulting in inflammation and tearing. This is why rotator cuff injuries are so common.

Now, based on this, we can construct a proof as follows:

Some important tenets of Christianity:

  • God is perfect.
  • God created Man in His image.

    And our own observations:

  • The rotator cuff is an example of un-intelligent (”assinine”) design.

    Therefore, either:

  • God did not create Man in His image.
  • God is a screw-up.
  • God is prone to shoulder injuries when He, say, throws too many pitches before the Archangel Michael pulls Him off the mound in the bottom of the Sixth, four pitches and six hits after he SHOULD have.

    Any one of these should be sufficient.

    Now, I’m aware that a number of Christians advance the idea that all of our ills arose after “the Fall”, when we were thrown out of Eden by God, and we are in fact degenerating from our original hallowed state. I find it implausible that part of this degeneration was a reorganization of the tendons in our shoulder. But I suspect that you dogmatic exegetes will consider that an adequate escape valve from my iron-clad proof.

    Women in science

    Don’t miss this Pharyngula post on the difficulties women face in science. It’s a two-fer, the first part about the “leaky pipe” syndrome at various stages in the European Young Investigator awards, and the second a paper demonstrating bias in peer review, concluding that women need to be, on average, 2.5 times as competent as men to be judged as competent. !.
