"Debating creationists on the topic of evolution is rather like trying to play chess with a pigeon; it knocks the pieces over, craps on the board, and flies back to its flock to claim victory."

Of course there is no debate. That was over with in 1859.

The quote "Debating creationists on the topic of evolution is rather like trying to play chess with a pigeon; it knocks the pieces over, craps on the board, and flies back to its flock to claim victory." (author unknown to me) is true. Creationists, also known as science deniers, are equal to pigeons, equally stupid.

The creationists (there's millions of these assholes in Idiot America) are the best possible advertisement for atheism.

The idea there's a magical being who magically created every creature out of nothing is very popular in this hick-infested country. Gallup polls have repeatedly shown they are 46% of the population. Most of the other 54% invoke their fairy to invent or use or guide evolution, which is another bullshit religious fantasy.

The wonderful things about evolution include how interesting the mechanisms are, how fantastically powerful the evidence is, and the fact that evolution makes the Magic Jeebus Man cry.

No other scientific idea is more feared than evolution because it completely kills every ridiculous religious fantasy ever invented.
