"LOL... Actually it is only a slightly exaggerated example of the type of mind-boggling ignorance that passes for thinking by creationists and IDers."

Nonsense, the fact that you don't agree with me and I don't agree with you DOES NOT mean I am ignorant on this issue.

It means we do not agree.

Atleast I admit I am biased by the fact that I support creation. Most darwinists refuse to consider their "theory" is wrong.

No darwinist/evolutionist has ever really answered questions they just shout their theories even louder.

The one I love the best is that life evolved out of bacteria living in rain drops.

No, creationists are biased by the fact that they value religious dogma more than truth.

This makes no sense. If you mean "might be wrong," then you'd still be wrong. In fact, I'd venture to guess that most people who understand science would be excited were it shown that the science of the theory of evolution was **scientifically** shown to be false, because it would open new realms of inquiry to determine what's really going on. The "scientific" part is key, though. And that's why creationism and ID fail. Creationism and ID are jokes; "thunder and lightening happens when god is angry" kind of stuff.

Sure they do. There are more than enough people on these threads who would love to answer legitimate questions, there are websites devoted to it, and I'd even venture to guess you could pick faculty names almost at random in biology departments at your local university, and it wouldn't be long before you'd find someone who'd be more than happy to take up some of his or her precious time to answer your questions.

As long as they are serious questions, seeking scientific answers, and not the ill-informed basking-in-ignorance that is typical of creationists. And that is the rub. Your typical creationist isn't interested in learning, in acquiring knowledge, but in defending their religious convictions and showing their religious piety, regardless of the science, and in many cases, in spite of it.

I've seen it on these very threads, where you get some creationist who tries to say that the centerpiece of the science of biology is bogus, but who doesn't understand basic science, even to the level of knowing the difference between a monkey and an ape. It is a cavalcade of ignorance.

The one I love the best is that life evolved out of bacteria living in rain drops.

Q.E.D.
