This is so something I should have covered in part 23.2 but neglected too. mt etna, and mt kilauea both were carbon dated a few years after the lava cooled and were dated to be several thousands of years old Take a rock to a lab to be carbon dated and they'll say: "Oi! We [...]

The Moon is big, it's sometimes bright and it's old. Creationists don't like that last one so they use bad "evidence" to try and disprove it. If the Moon is billions of years old there should have been so much dust on the moon that Apollo 11 should have sunk in it. Even Answers in [...]

If the fossil record goes against your evidence, deny they exist. If some one points the fossil record out, claim they or are not what they actually are. This is what creationists do. The fossil record is strong evidence for evolution and it large. Piltdown man: It was a hoax, this is true. This was [...]

The odds of a single protein forming are *insert really big number here* to 1 Creationists in an attempt to discredit abiogenises or any other scientific field will spout really big numbers in an attempt to make "it" look impossible. Less dishonest creationists will use real statistics but will misrepresent those statistics, others will just [...]

How do scientists know that? No one was there to see it, no one was there to see something evolve, no one was there to see life form, no one was there to see the big bang, etc. Do you need to see a person walking across a beach to know someone walked across a [...]

This is another one along the lines of "evolution is a religion". This argument is an attempt to discredit evolution by not only saying it is equal to religion but also saying there is no evidence for it (faith is a belief in something with out or despite evidence). Evolution is not a religion nor [...]

People who are against evolution like to use the words "evolutionism" or "darwinism" to describe evolution and call people who accept evolution "evolutionists" or "darwinists". This is similar to calling evolution a religion. It's a method of trying to discredit evolution or bring evolution down to a the level of philosophy, belief or religion. Evolution [...]

Science (unlike religion) does not claim to have the absolute truth only the best approximation based on the best currently available evidence. When new evidence comes along scientists review their theories in the light of the new evidence and alter the theories to fit the new evidence when necessary. We can't know everything and what [...]

First of all: not every two ideas are equal. Flat earth and spherical earth are not equal, geocentricism and heliocentrism are not equal, the germ theory of disease and disease being caused by demon possession are not equal, psychology and thatens possession are not equal and intelligent design and the theory of evolution are not [...]
