Evolutionists, do you agree that this is the best way to approach a creationist?
Tuesday, November 24th, 2009Here’s the approach: let them explain the theory of evolution. If they got it wrong (as they almost certainly will), then there is no reason to debate. You just tell them that they can’t claim a theory to be wrong and in fact not understand it.
Science lovers; agree or disagree?
As for me, I have not yet met a single creationist who truly understands evolution. And my method works well. They get stumped. All that they know about evolution are rhetoric like "survival of the fittest" or so and so.
Since creationism/IDiocy depends on evolution being a caricature of itself, its practically impossible for a creationist to actually grasp the full facts of evolution.
Creationism starts with a massive list of errors about evolution, so, if a creationist managed to learn just how WRONG they are about evolution, its not likely that they’d be able to stay a creationist.
BTW, "evolutionist" is a made up creationist word.
