My particular favorite is Hovind who claims to have a PhD from a ranch style house.
That's a shameless lie. The house is a split level! How dare you misrepresent Hovind's alma mater?

1)PLEASE do not turn this debate into one of these topics. These topics should be discussed in other forums.
My main arguments against evolution are:
1. Abiogenesis
Then your argument is doomed, because abiogenesis is not part of evolutionary theory. You might as well try to bring it down by arguing against quantum theory.
2. Mutation-Selection
Not much hope there, either. We can directly observe that process. Would you like some examples?
3. Puncuated Equilibrium
That might be interesting. What do you find objectionable about Punk-Eek?
These are the sections of the theory in which I find the most unconvincing for evolution.
You seem to be talking about the Cartoon Theory of Evolution, as opposed to the real one. The Cartoon Theory, so beloved by creationists, is certainly wrong. But the real one is certainly right. Would you like to learn about the real one?
