This is from Talkorigins.org's Jan 2003 Feedback:
quote:
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Those of us from the MSN Evolution Vs Creationism wish to thank you for your hard work and excellent articles on the issue of Evolution and Creationism over the past year. For your entertainment pleasure, we present to you the 10 worst Creationist arguments/statements that we witnessed being used in our chat room for 2002. In general objections to evolution in our Chat Room were the same endlessly recycled nonsense you have to endure at TalkOrigins. Just a Theory, The Bible says so, No new info, Second Law of Thermo, No transitionals/Missing Links, Moondust, Hoaxes and misidentified fossils, ..etc However we occasionally get stuff that is so off the wall it cannot be easily categorized. These ten are some of the funnier examples of those statements.
Top Ten Worst Creationist Args
# 10 CrzyboutGod: I feel sorry for you. You're all blinded by the TRUTH!
# 9 Trumpet57: If Noah didn't cause the seashells to be mountins then how do u think the fishes got up there by walking on the fins or flying or what? And I'm not ignorent I just want to show if you can't answer.
Under the "oops" category # 8 Livng4him21: If people evolved from monkeys why are there still people?
Under "OMG The Irony" Top Ten Worst Creationist Args # 7 Bleeding_Robot: You're the one who is doing the assuming here. It says in the bible that God made Adam fully formed and the stars the same way. So the light was already on the way to Earth. Anything else is pure guesswork on your part.
# 6 ashydad: How can you call evolution a science? I'm looking at a dictionary right now and there is no mention of evolution under science.
# 5 and the winner of the Utter Lack of Logic Award! Guest_byadamsite: You just said theories can never be proven. Since creation is the only theory that has been proven creation wins again!
Top Ten Worst Creationist Arguments of All Time # 4 InoUrButWhtAmI: Science shows God even holds the atoms together though some of the partcicles have been positive charges and would push on each other. So making the Earth would be a lot easier for him than you think.
# 3 Ko_Uraki : tell me how nothing came from nothing!?!
Top Ten Worst Creationists Arguments of All Time Arg Runner-up!! (Remember that if our winner is for any reason unable to fill their obligations as the poster person for Creationist Idiocy this runner-up will step in) new558 : The whole world uses the seven day week as was predicted by the bible!
And the #1 Worst Creationists Argument of 2002 is.... sweetheart5666 : if evolution is true, then how come horses exist?
(Editor's note: Despite sustained and repeated requests for clarity-between bouts of hysterical laughter-The Hosts and Members of EvC were unable to find out what Sweet meant by this question)
~Darksyd~
So when do we start compiling ours?

Some real gems in that list. I'm sure a Top 50 would be just as easy to compile.
I'm waiting for the Top 10 worst evo arguments. I'm sure someone's working on it right now.

"I'm waiting for the Top 10 worst evo arguments. I'm sure someone's working on it right now."
--Actually, from personal experience, if you speak to evo's with comparable educational level as those who parrot this drivel, they will give you comparably unintelligent answers, subjections, quibbles, and flawed accusations.

Exactly TC. And that's why I'd expect a similar list.

This site has some classic forum Xtian / Creationist quotes - some lifted directly from EvC! Its pretty extensive, as well.
Some choice nuggets:
"I am here typing on my computer. I am thinking, so therefore I must be created by an intelligent designer. Otherwise my conscience wouldn't be here at this moment in time."
- Matt, EvC Forum
"Yeah, right Evolution would not stand a chance if it were not government funded. It is the only government funded religion there is. It would die a quick death without government funding. Of course indirectly it is promoted by the porno industry. Sense the ACLU is porno funded, and evolution is a part of their godless agenda. Then don't forget the gambling money from state run lotteries that supports the godless agenda in our universities. Not that I am against the lottery, it does help our collage students. At least Christians are self supporting and do not have to tap the american tax payer to fund their religion. No one is asked to support their agenda who does not agree with it. But they take money out of my pocket to support the government endorsed religion of evolution in our school systems. To purchase text books that promote evolution and so forth."
- JohnR7, ChristianForums
"So if someone says that the universe is 14 billion years old, what exactly are they saying? Are we saying the earth has done 14 billion laps of the sun? No because the people who say the universe is 14 billion years old also say that for a lot of this time our solar system wasn't even formed."
- judge, ChristianForums
Aw heck, too many to post. Have a look for yourself....

Question: how does the government fund evolution?
I think it's the evil athiestic Jewish people in Hollywood who, through the trilateral commission, secretly run the government and use the tax dollars of the hard working American red-neck conservative evangelical to fund the evolution promoting public television!
Anyway, I heard that in a sports bar once, when the evil liberal Austin based Texas Longhorns were slamming the nice decent God fearing Aggies from College Station. (I cannot confirm if there is any "link" between these things. I suspect it is missing.)
