First of all, I really don't know where this should go and this is why I posted it here in the proposed NT. This is more of an announcement than something to debate about.
Arguments creationists shouldn't use is a wonderful webpage for some creationists on here to read through before going at it. I stumbled upon that page and thought it could potentially weed out a lot of the obviously bogus creationist arguments that we often see popping up all over the forum.
Since creationists often refuse to take the advice of evos, I thought it would be better if they get this from their fellow creationists who are less insane.
I really strongly advice people reading this page. It advices people against using bogus arguments like the hydroplate theory (ahem *cough* Hangdawg13 *cough cough*), 2nd law (which we often see from newbies who often hit and run), Darwin recanted his theory (which we saw over and over during darkstar's reign of terror), and many other obviously rediculous arguments that should have been obviously rediculous in the first place.
I believe that if people take the time to read this that we will see more valid creationist arguments (if there are such things) on these boards.
Added by edit:
By the way, pay close attention to the Ron Watt section.

Well, some of our least incoherent creationist occasionally try to use some of these arguments. So, I don't think that place is as well known as you think.

Knowing where it is at is different from believing it.
You have to remember that the gulf between different sects of believers is wider than the gulf between believer and non.

I'm not insane - I just eat baba de Lams for breakfast.

Indeed! Let us remember the vast conflicts between Catholics and Protestants, and the insane iconoclasm in Byzantine that resulted in some two or three hundred years of civil war over whether it was OK to have pictures of religious figures or not!
