It's just sad. Instead of searching for evidence of their own "theory" (term used loosely), they try and hide evolution's evidence...sad.

Carmen: ...because one of these creation whackjobs would have been able to show some proof by now.

The two themes of creation science are
1. Ignorance.
2. Dishonesty.

I know. Too bad they're right about creation, though. It's almost like a slap in the face to real science.
I don't believe the Bible, but I believe there is some next level stuff going down. I was burning my brain over it for the past 6 years and finally found the truth of all things.

It never ceases to amaze me that some people just refuse to accept the fact that there might be some middle ground on this issue. Like maybe, just maybe, evolution from early hominids was God's way of creating humankind. And don't say something like "My God doesn't work that way!" because you DON'T know that. Personally, I think that God gets a little irked at fundies who think they can constantly speak for Him and tell people what His will is.
I also shake my head at the ones who cite the "mathematical chances" that life could form out of primordial ooze. First of all, that is a misrepresentation of mathematics. Second of all, like I said above, maybe that was how God got everything started.
Just because something isn't in the Bible, doesn't mean it isn't true or couldn't have happened.

What the creationists main thrust seems to be is to stop people looking at evidence for evolution. The evidence for evolution is overwhelming, and the only way you can believe otherwise is to keep ignoring it.
I would like to see the evidence for creation and evolution side-by-side, so that all of it is there to be examined and criticised, like any real scientific evidence should be.
I think that evolution would then be shown to be the only viable explanation to life on Earth.

"Sad" doesn't even begin to describe that. Wow.
It's also a little funny, though. On one hand, creationists say they're not afraid of science and evolution because all the theories that go against the Bible are "full of holes" and "unproven" -- and yet apparently they're scared to death of those same theories, or else they wouldn't be trying so hard to hide them from people.

It escapes these people that such an action tells people that they have something to hide, that creationism cannot stand up to facts.
The story is told that the wife of a British Bishop said, upon learning that humans were descended from apes, "Let us hope that it isn't true; failing that, let us hope it does not become widely known."

Evolution is still just a "theory" as well. There is no concrete proof that all the scientists can agree on.
Why do you think we haven't found the missing link yet?
Because it doesn't exist. Most of our "ancestors" have been put together from just a couple of bones and nothing else.
Creationism answers ALL of the questions.
