For those curious, from Wikipedia:
Giving birth is difficult for female hyenas, as the females give birth through their narrow clitoris, and spotted hyena cubs are the largest carnivoran young relative to their mothers’ weight. During parturition, the clitoris ruptures to facilitate the passage of the young, and may take weeks to heal.

Serpent: “you don’t even wanna know.”Eh the Christian god really is an asshole,

I’m with the other person… if it was intelligent design… it was some world creation game and we’re in a speed run save.
Love the conversations on the WTF Evolution tumblr: https://www.tumblr.com/wtfevolution
Abrahamic* to be precise. They’re all the same asshole, just different names. (And, even that was listed from earlier cultures’ traditions, FFS. Lazy, unoriginal, and fucking stupid? That tracks for religion all around, really.)
I love how the gen 1 creation story basically reads like schoolboys one upping their friends about how great their dad is.
“Yeah. Well, my god made the world and everything in it! and he took a nap on. The seventh day!!!”
Swap out “schoolboys” with “old fear-mongering pervs”, and you’re even closer to the historical truth.
well, they were old fearmongering pervs, no doubt.
I was just referring to the simple fact that the creation account was a cloned copy of all the others… just wit that squeaky “Yeah well my dad’s twice the fireman your dad is” vibe. Sad they used their supposed power of their god to justify rampant invasions and genocide. (which they failed at the genocide because they were too busy raping…)
They didn’t fail at genocide. That’s not an absolute, it’s a process. They may’ve failed at outright extinction most often (though some scattered empires of old would point out that they were destroyed by religion), but genocide is an inalienable aspect of every single religion known to mankind. Right up there with molesting children and blatantly plagiarizing “sacred” text whole cloth from other grifter “holy” men.
They failed the first time around (“invasion” of the Canaanite lands, where they were told to genocide their neighbors.)
This might help.
Female Hyena’s have what is called a pseudo-penis. Which is used for sex and urination, as well as giving birth.
Obviously giving birth splits it open fucks your whole year / life up.
WTF?
Hey, the cartoon dog did warn us.
It’s one of my go-to arguments against intelligent design.
That, or God’s an arsehole, which all things considered…
“Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?”

Bed bug mating practices are probably up there too
Well that one’s cute.
Why cut off the last few panels of the comic?
Awww, pugger
