The atheist's nightmare
The atheist's nightmare might refer to:

The atheist's nightmare is a term for the above two arguments made against evolution. It derives from the title of the video that explains why peanut butter disproves evolution and a quip made by Ray Comfort before explaining the teleology of a banana. While "the atheists' nightmare" was seemingly used seriously by the arguments' proponents, it was quickly appropriated by skeptics and online snarkers to mock the sheer ridiculousness of the arguments.
