Re: Needs some meat
So the debate would actually be between evolutionists here at the site and your husband, with you acting as an intermediary. Can you ask your husband why he believes the platypus is evidence against evolution and post that to this thread. That would likely provide enough to get discussion started.
​
Another way to approach this would be for your husband to join EvC Forum and participate in person. We already have a husband/wife team here with Zhimbo and Schrafinator.

Re: Needs some meat
I agree with Nosy that the platypus is an excellent example, especially for the irony of trying to use a living transitional fossil as evidence against evolution. Possibly your husband is amused that you're taking seriously the fallacies he's tossing off. You may be giving him insufficient credit for subtlety.
