Miracles

This is perhaps the most retarded song I have ever heard. Literally every "miracle" in the song can easily be explained by anyone who managed to graduate high school... which I'm guessing ICP never did. Let's break it down, shall we:

"Long neck giraffes, and pet cats and dogs" The giraffe’s long neck is the natural result of millions of years of evolution. While it was once thought that a longer neck gave the animal an advantage due to the ability to reach tall food sources during times of drought, these days there’s also a fairly strong case to be made for the idea that males with longer, stronger necks were better able to at win “necking” fights with other males, thereby enabling them to reproduce and give way to offspring that shared their traits. Pet cats and dogs are the result of hundreds of thousands of years of domestication by man. Early Homo sapiens selectively bred wild wolves, which after many generations resulted in what we now consider to be the domesticated dog. This lineage of dogs is simple recognize, due to the fact the wolves are able to easily mate with dogs. Cats followed a similar path, as Homo sapiens have used kept cats for hundreds of thousands of years as a means of pest and rodent control.

"Shaggy’s little boys look just like Shaggy/And my little boy looks just like daddy" This is obviously the result of genetics. Literally every single living organism on the planet receives genetic material from its progenitor, regardless if reproduction is sexual or asexual. The fact that a parent's child contains the same genes as them and therefore has a similar physical appearance is far from a 'miracle' - in fact it is to be expected, hardly out of the ordinary.

"Solar eclipse, and vicious weather" We know enough about weather patterns to fairly accurately predict what will happen, both on a short-term scale of day to day weather and on a long-term scale like the Earth’s climate millions of years ago. Weather is merely result of the natural chemical processes that occur in earth's atmosphere.

"Fucking rainbows after it rains/There's enough miracles here to blow your brains" You should never try to fuck a rainbow. It is in fact an optical phenomenon caused by light reflecting off the back of condensed water in the air, showing us the full spectrum of visible light. You can never touch it, and it will always appear to move away from you the closer you get.

"Fucking magnets, how do they work?/And I don't wanna talk to a scientist/Y'all motherfuckers lying, and getting me pissed" This is perhaps the most ignorant verse of all. A magnet is just an object that can attract and repel other magnets and some metals by producing a magnetic field, which is invisible. In the 19th century, a scientist named James Clerk Maxwell discovered that magnetism and electricity are like two sides of the same coin. All our electronic equipment works thanks to the fact that we understand magnets. Even the Earth itself is a giant magnet! The center of our planet is chock full of molten rock with magnetic elements like iron, so we’re surrounded by our own magnetosphere. When particles fly at us from the sun, known as solar winds, and pass through the magnetosphere, we see the northern lights, also known as aurora borealis. This breathtaking display could once be considered a miracle or just a strange mystery. Now we know its true cause. Like many ignorant people, Insane Clown Posse wishes to pick and choose which scientific achievements they consider valid. Unfortunately for ICP, the same science that proves the existence of a magnetic field is the same science the proves the age of the earth is 4+ billion years old, the same science that powers their refrigerator, the same science that powers the microprocessor that allows them to connect to the internet and view this forum, the same science that allowed the incredibly shitty CGI to be used for the music video to this song. These are not separate ideas. Science is built upon the fundamental laws of existence - everything else is the natural result of these laws. If one is to deny the existence of a magnetic field, or to claim that the earth is only a few thousand years old, one must also reject nearly every other scientific advancement from the past 600 years, as they all sprout from the same fundamental scientific principles.

"I fed a fish to a pelican at (Friscal?) bay/It tried to eat my cell phone, he ran away" I'm sorry, but even the stupidest individual can see that this is NOT a miracle. It's a fucking pelican. They eat shit.

"Niagara falls and the pyramids" The Niagara Falls were formed when glaciers receded at the end of the Wisconsin glaciation (the last ice age), and water from the newly formed Great Lakes carved a path through the Niagara Escarpment en route to the Atlantic Ocean. This is the natural process of erosion, and it took nearly 10,000 years for the falls to be created. The pyramids were built by slaves over centuries. Slavery is NOT a miracle.

Most of the other 'miracles' in this songs are simply descriptions of nature: "The sun and the moon, and even Mars/The Milky Way and fucking shooting stars" and "Oceans spanning beyond my sight/And a million stars way above em at night." These are simply the result of the inherent natural order of the universe. While the starry sky and Earth's oceans are certainly majestic vistas, they have their origins in fundamental, natural processes. These process are too complex to describe here - if you're truly interested, Wikipedia them.

In conclusion, Insane Clown Posse is composed of fucking retards. Also, this song sucks and is terrible music. Listen to something better please.
