What astounds me is not that the Christian Fundamentalists deny evolution, but that they don't deny the Earth's orbit. After all, the same thinking that dictates their evolution denial is just as valid as it was pre-Galelaeo when everything in the Universe revolved around the Earth.
Well, you see, the evidence for heliocentricism is so massive and the principle so simple, that not even Ken Ham or Kent Hovind could deny it. On the other hand, evolution is hard enough to understand and only has enough evidence to be considered true beyond all reasonable doubt. Unreasonable doubt + ignorance can still overcome it...at the moment.

What do you mean "You can't prove a negative"? Have you searched the whole universe for proofs of a negative statement? No? How do you know that they don't exist then?!
