Why would I need to "argue against evolution"? Let's look at truth. Evolution, as a scientific theory, just isn't cutting it. It's got some major issues with it.

So, you're not arguing against evolution by claiming it doesn't cut it as a scientific theory? What does? Give me an example.

Do you know that a scientific theory is simply the explanation of known facts? How can known facts not cut it, but your unverifiable fairytale story of an invisible sky man does? That's just crazy. We'll, that's just religion, crazy.

You're trying to have a rational argument with someone who believes in an invisible being that lives in the sky.

I have seen some of those so called "scientific lectures disputing evolution" given by ministers, theologians, and church enthusiasts.

I know but most of the religious have no idea about anything scientific. As has been stated, they get their "science education" from church apologists and other assorted religious opportunist (Kirk Cameron/Ray Comfort). I like to at least put the truth out there.

"Evolution" is based on Science whereas "creationism" is based on fairy tales!
