Yeah - unfortunately, I've seen this a lot in many of the creationist biased web sites. While they often bring up some good points that could be 'used' in their arguments, they are so far buried in the 'anti-evolution' misrepresentations that most folks have stopped reading long before they get there.boulderjohn:As I read thse posts, I was reminded of this. I saw over and over and over again where people are taking their information about what evolution from people who are against it. These people, as my former student learned, use the straw man fallacy as their most common reasoning technique. That is, the misrepresent the opposing argument in order to shoot it down. Most, I suspect, do not do this on purpose; they honestly believe they are telling the truth, for they have been deluded themselves.
Mine came from my college education and subsequent reading. While I fully agree with the parts of the evolution process that have actually been observed, much of what has been extrapolated left even the atheist that was working on a 'Biological Sciences' degree with more questions than answers. Now that I've got that 'BS' degree, there are still more questions than answers.boulderjohn:So I ask everyone: where did you get your information? Can you be sure that what you "know" is true and accurate?
And no, the Creation story doesn't answer them all, but it fills in more of the blanks than the ToE does
