Yes a game where you destroy blocks to get blocks to make stuff is very very serious.
Snow Golems, yes they look child like but what ever they have their uses, keep stuff from stabbing you in the back and making easy to gather snow quickly.
I haven't heard anything about them coming from eggs please give source, I can see the eggs thing, is it realistic no, but they have to protect the mind of the little kiddies that do play it.
I don't know how many people have to say this, IF YOU DO NOT LIKE A UPDATE, THEN DO NOT UPDATE. It's not like someone is holding a gun to your head and telling you to update.
Found the source about breeding he said MAYBE.

If you have even a remote knowledge of coding, (and if you don't you honestly shouldn't be playing a game like Minecraft), script a mod to remove the things you don't want. That's the beauty of Minecraft, you can change pretty much anything. Plus, I never remember Minecraft ever being serious, it's always been laced with a certain humor. How do you know that Notch made Snow Golems because he was "frustrated", or that he wants all animals to hatch from eggs because he thinks it's funny, CITATION OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN. In the meantime, get a grip and realize you're playing a community-based game in Beta, if you want such a "serious" experience, go back to CoD and stop bitching.
I'm too lazy to write a link out, but go find notch's twitter and you will find the answer to the Snow Golems and eggs.
As for coding, this has nothing to do on this debate, but, If people who didn't know how to code played minecraft, I'm pretty sure more than half the community = Gone.
Also, we shouldn't have to go out of our way to fix things that notch did that are a problem.
I understand somethings, such as hunger which is a good implementation but some people don't want it, but for such things as Snow Golems and Animals coming from eggs? I don't think we need to go out of our way to fix the idiotic ideas hatching from Notch at the time.
Why must we labor for the developers mistakes? ITS BETA FOR **** SAKE.
There you go, OP. Proof Animal Breeding doesn't involve eggs. The egg comment was a joke, Notch likes to joke. Do you really believe that comment over this link?
The creeper is a monster. Farm animals pushing you into lava? The world is made of blocks, and that is funny because? Very small list.
You know what else is a monster?
teehee.
Joking aside, I do agree with the NPC's, but as a wise man once said, "Let the boys be boys."
Or something like that.
Point is, let Notch do what he wants. It's still in Beta, there's plenty of time to change.

I still do. No offense but babies has nothing to do with live birth and/or eggs.
It's still a possibility, and even if it is a joke, which it most likely but there is still the possibility, that doesn't mean this entire case is bogus, Snow Golems and NPCS are still way to silly, not saying that minecraft is serious, just that these 2 things have gone past silly threshold and have finally hit idiotic.
EDIT:And I quote myself please if you can, come back to me and tell me that, this isn't silly.
I have found none of them to be silly, have you seriously gone to the nether, saw a flying white octopus shooting canons to be "Silly". Did you see this flying thing potentially killing you making the sound of burning children, laughable? I find you to be a sick, twisted man.

You don't NEED to make Snow Golems, they're existence is completely up to you. It's not like you find them running around in the wild. As for NPCs, their appearance isn't going to change, so there's nothing you can do about it. But their behavior will, so there is that.

Finally someone who defends his point without sounding like a mindless child, making invalid points because everything notch makes is a "Stroke of Genius".
Erm... What is Minecraft's "theme" exactly? And why are you the one to decide it?
I find it strange how people have all made up their minds about Minecraft's "story" or "plot" or "theme", and anything that deviates from that ideal is "drastically changing Minecraft" and all that crap.

Although you are correct about the snow golems, there is a need for their mention, they are silly, but I didn't mean for it to come across as something that important, just notable.
As for NPCS I am fully aware they're style isn't changing, which in truth, puzzles me... Why is mojang so reluctant to change them? Surely changing the look of an npc isn't so ground breaking.
Did I forget to mention Mooshrooms? Although they are quite humorous and not as bad, they aren't good either. To me 1.9 feels just like notch decided to make a minecraft mod.
Personally, everything notch has made in minecraft up to 1.8 is REALLY good and is Professional.
The things on forums are really good but how many of them are something mojang would truly implement within the game?
I feel that this wasn't something up to par with Mojangs true talents.
Yes but when I say silly I don't really mean stop and take a giggle, I just mean its unusual and weird, its something that you don't usually see and honestly its very original.
Original and unique have nothing to do with silly. Silly is a naked clown doing a handstand on a unicycle juggling pies.
That is silly.
Minecraft isn't silly, nor is it serious, nor realistic, it is something indescribable.
It's also a matter of opinion, I can see where you come from, I simply don't agree

Dude, you're just going to **** off the Minecraft fanboys. You do have a right to your own opinion. I also agree that he is kind of doing some weird things to the game. I for one, hate the swamps. They are too over powerful and they ruin my landscape. Luckily, with a few seeds I run, they are rare. Also the pine tree forests are way overbearing too. Although I do like some of the stuff like the villages and the ravines and such. In all honesty, I think they should rather fix all the bugs then keep updating the game. It's better to have a working, running, stable game, then to have a piece of crap, buggy, not fun to play game, at all.
Again, everyone has their own opinion. This is just mine.
About this whole egg and baby animal thing. It started out as being about Notch being lazy. I find it hard to believe that either way would be very hard to code. For eggs, just use chicken eggs and have it use a similar mechanism as monster spawning, with certain prerequisites, etc. For baby animals, just modify the tree and plant farming code so that they grow and evolve through phases. So no matter what he chides, I highly doubt it would be due to him being lazy. Whatever he chooses, it will include breeding of some sort. Just enjoy the fact that Mojang does quick updates, unlike other online games, where large developers just maintain the game and add other useless ****. Minecraft was made to be unique. It has no theme as far as I see. Does every game need to conform to certain standards of how it should evolve and be updated? Just go with the flow and enjoy the game you payed for. Other games are never updated. Be glad that Mojang at least listens to some user input.
Is that it??

I will admit, these are not serious but which one of them are silly?

I love Ghasts as well, but they aren't well, silly. Neither are they serious but I didn't pause the game to take a quick giggle or something.

That was before he mentioned eggs.

Who says you can't ride a slime?!
Minecraft's doing great. I have no complaints other than the endless bashing and slight lag.
