I picked out the 5 most powerful arguments for creation...

THOSE are supposed to be the most powerful arguments? You guys are in serious need of some intellectual rigor and honesty.

Yeah, I know the other side looks for highly technical talk from a phD in a lab coat (because that’s where “rigor” comes from, right?)

But to ask how believing in the Big Bang isn’t an act of faith (for instance) not unlike a belief that God’s hand created everything IS powerful. Because for all the high-minded talk and the superiority complex coming evolutionists and those who bow at the altar of science such a simple statement/question crumbles their attempt to assert a sort of infallible (they think) authority over their opponents.

And then they’re reduced to “psssh...psssh...uhhhhhh....psssh” responses like yours.

Well, then here's a serious argument(hopefully without driving it down into a really bad direction):

I seriously need some evolutionist to explain in a credible manner how sexual reproduction could possibly have ever developed... two distinctly different, yet fully compatible evolutionary paths in which two genders exist such that when they come together, a new creature can be formed, thus perpetuating the species.

Never mind all of the intricate molecular and biological processes that have to take place to make all that work.

"THOSE are supposed to be the most powerful arguments? You guys are in serious need of some intellectual rigor and honesty."

Agreed. Why don't you give us the most powerful arguments for first living cell arising randomly with the 6 feet of DNA structures necessary to codify not only the organization of the cell, but its replication system, the repair system, the communication system, the fabrication system and its integration system with soon to be surrounding cells. I think we missed that part in the other 5 cards.

“THOSE are supposed to be the most powerful arguments? You guys are in serious need of some intellectual rigor and honesty.”

Yes. And spelling as well.

Yet I think there is no reason to challenge their honesty and that unnecessary insult says a lot about where you are coming from.

The five from the other side were quite idiotic as well, except for the first one, which seemed sincere despite it’s limitations in intellectual rigor.
