Just last night I happened upon a link (from an answer here at Y!A) to this site:
http://www.modomedia.com/quantum/100things.html
It supposedly contains "1000 things evolutionists hate. Negating, for a moment, the utter ridiculousness of some of the assertions on the page, I couldn't help but notice that virtually all of the links (to their "proof") that I happened to click on were to "Creationist science" websites.
I have to wonder...if you're trying to convince evolutionists of the credibility of your arguements, why would you only link to Creationist science websites? As a supporter (for the most part) of the theory of evolution, I'm not going to be convinced of anything by "scientists" whose ulterior motive is to give credence to the authenticity of the bible, and I doubt many other evolutionists would either.

To chess19902000: "Creationist science" has an ulterior motive; what you call "Evolutionist science" (that is to say, real science) does not. It's sort of like the difference between a partial and impartial jury, and I know which I'd like to be judged by.

To ocdfj: I'd give you the name of a species (and no, it was not a money), but I think you'd probably find it a little hard to pronounce, so I won't bother.

Because there is no such thing as "creationist science".
They insist on using a book of collected folk tales from 2000+ years ago which has no other writings to back it up as a historical text.
Virtually ALL of both the Old and New Testaments stories predate monotheism by thousands of years.
To ocdfj, no one said that man decended from apes, merely that they had a common ancestor. How can you look at our president and not agree with that?

As a Christian, I have to be a bit embarrassed for these folks. I have yet to figure out why they care so much if evolutionists believe their truths.
I personally don't feel the need to convince anyone that what I know is true, is true. I know it is true, and that is good enough lol. By the way, I believe the Bible is 100% accurate, and I also believe in evolution. I know, some say it can't happen that way, but I think my theory is just as valid, if not more so, than the folks you are asking about :)

There is a body of evidence of which Creation Science is a part that sustains the truths presented. Perhaps it is because agnostics don't recognize the Bible as authoritative.
There are other bodies of evidence that support the truths being presented: Carbon 14 balance is just one of them, geology is the next that I can think of.

Why can evolutionists only cite "Evolutionistic science" for proof?
Heck, why use science at all. Science should all be proved with empirical evidence from Art. Or how bout music. Lets use music too.

So you believe in evoltion! In that case what species of monkey did you evolve from? God created the heavens and earth, And
the Bible is the undisputible word of God.
But if you truly want to evolve to the next level.....
Try Jesus!
