...like the watchmaker scenario where complexity is supposed to be a sign of design by intelligence. Every snowflake, hurricane, or diamond ever created disproves this.

Because they are generally not allowed to believe anything not releted to them by a preacher.

You said, "..like the watchmaker scenario where complexity is supposed to be a sign of design by intelligence. Every snowflake, hurricane, or diamond ever created disproves this."
Explain how?
Then answer me this, how does life come from non life?
How is DNA created without a parent/parents? Evolution scientists still can't explain how our environment started. The guy that talked about the warm soup has recanted his theory. Again, how can life come from non life? I don't have this much faith...

Creation has been proved by science! Quantum Mechanics has come up with the "String Theory" to describe what everything is composed of..."strings" of vibrating energy. The creation account says that God "spoke' everything into existence.. sound being a vibrating energy...what do you think?
Also, the Laws of Thermodynamics supports entropy, not random processes of adaption and improvement, as evolution would postulate.
Science has always been man's attempts to explain the things of God. We haven't always got it right... at one time science thought that the earth was the center of the universe and solar system.. that it was "flat"...etc.

Although I get what your going for here, it doesnt work.
Since they believe God created everything, than the complexity of snowflakes, hurricanse and diamonds only proves their point.

i find it amusing that a widely accept and prooven element of evolution, speciation is often written off as scientific propaganda.
A belief structure can be so ingrained into a person that anything that threatens it is the work of Satan, or my favorite a test from God.

I think creationists websites and literature keep recycling debunked ideas because they know that most of their readership isin't reading up on the other side of the issue. They know they have an advantage with people who want to believe and are just looking for anything that will support what they wish to believe.

Hmmm,
Maybe for the same reasons that people spout the same anti-Religious rhetoric even when they know it is un-true.
I am not a "Fundie" but am a Christian.

Haha, I think they're in a time warp! That must be it. It's why the fundy women all dress like "Little House on the Prairie"

I honestly don't think most spend a whole lot of time worrying about it. It seems to be the non-believers topic of choice. (you watch Heroes don't you...good show.)

for the same reason "enlightened people like yourself continue to hold on to the old and flawed arguements for evolution - it's what we have in our bag of tricks.
