Invisible Pink Unicorn

http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/the-invisible-pink-unicorn

The Invisible Pink Unicorn (IPU) is the goddess of a parody religion used to satirize theistic beliefs, taking the form of a unicorn that is paradoxically both invisible and pink. This makes her a rhetorical illustration used by atheists and other religious skeptics.

Noah's Ark

Noah's Ark is a generally well-known part of the Bible in which Noah, a follower of God, builds an Ark to house his family of 4 and 2 of each species of animal on Earth during the Flood. The measurements, as given in the Bible have been converted to modern day measurements and the number of species existing at the time have been determined through science and evolution. The result shows the lack of space each animal would have if the measurements given were to be believed. The space allotted to each animal proves the impossibility of this part of Genesis.

Adultery

This meme draws attention to the 7th Commandment which states: "Thou shall not commit adultery." However, according to the Bible, Jesus was born of Mary, a virgin and wife to Joseph. Therefore, God impregnated a married woman and directly disobeyed his own commandment. Christians believe that Jesus was conceived through immaculate conception, which means God technically did not contradict himself, but science has proven that the only way to impregnate a woman involves intercourse.

The Sabbath

The Advice God meme is shown in its usual format of a blue, yellow, and white background with the head of Michelangelo’s God from the painting The Creation of the Sun and Moon placed front and center. Here, the meme has been repackaged to apply to a contradiction found between the Bible’s guidance on the Sabbath and the lived religion of Christians.
