The stupid... it burns!

I saw this on "The Soup" the other night and then it popped up on AOL news this morning.  It still boggles my mind that there are people this ignorant:

Since starting her co-hosting role on 'The View,' Sherri Shepherd has had her share of "Huh?" moments. Most famously, the actress said she wasn't quite convinced that the earth was round.

A new quote burning up the viral world may become even more infamous, as Shepherd on Monday's 'View' got into a discussion about religion timelines with her fellow hosts. The ensuing discussion went in a head-scratching direction.

While talking about religion, Whoopi Goldberg suggests that ancient Greek philosopher Epicurus didn't have Jesus Christ or Christianity.

"They still had Christians back then," Shepherd retorts, claiming that the religion existed 300 years before Jesus Christ was born. "They had Christians and they threw them to the lions," she continues.

"I think this might predate that," Goldberg added.

"I don't think anything predated Christians," Shepherd replied.


*headdesk*


And (with a bit of cosmic irony) Happy Hannukah!
