He's not the first creationist who claimed that evolution could be tossed aside simply by selectively changing out dictionary definitions of words.

Remember, words are fluid, and can have whatever meaning we want.

I love how creationists not only want to re-define words, when they do insist on pulling out the dictionary (as if that means anything in this context) they skip past the first couple definitions and jump right to the fourth or sixth one, pretending that those definitions somehow "trump" the first one!

Not only do they not understand how science works, they don't seem to know how a dictionary works, either....
