Unrestrained Ignorance
Probably the reason this person percieved such hostility is that most intelligent people simply cannot handle pompus displays of unrestrained and willfull ignorance.
There are massive inconsistencies in the theory of evolution, which is why it remains just that - a theory. Foremost among these unresolved issues is, first, how evolution contradicts the second law of thermodynamics, the law of entropy increase.
Starting with this statement and the equally as rediculous ones that follow, any person with an impression that they were enganged in a debate with even a moderatly knowledgable person would immediatly have that perception destroyed.
What authority or conviction did this person feel they had to make such a sophmoric error about the second law of thermodynamics? Even the most remedial review of physics, something that you can recieve in an entry level physics class, is enough to dispell this TIRED OLD CANNARD!
What you find time and time again in these debates is that the opponents of evolution do not care about checking their facts. If at some point they heard these even less than sophmoric attempts to poke "holes" in evolution, they have very obviously made ZERO further effort to determine if they are actually true.
See, I think that is what sets science minded folks apart from creationists. Creationists are perfectly willing to take information that agrees with their position completely at face value without challange.
The frustration percieved is then just the equivalent of trying to convince an insane person that they are NOT in fact Elvis and that the government is NOT in fact using mind control devices to experiment on regular citizens.
What is worse is all you have to do to an equivalent belief is assign the word "religion" to it, get enough people to believe it, and then you are somehow deemed qualified to comment on matters for which scientists and experts have spent their entire lives learning and contributing.
What arrogance! What sheer and unrestrained ignorance.

Of course, biblical creationists are committed to belief in God's written Word, the Bible, which forbids bearing false witness; --AIG (lest they forget)
