You seem to think creationist 'rebuttals' have merit.I bet you though if you even ask the ones that believe in the evolutionary process (42 % of Americans you say) if they've listened to seminars providing rebuttals that creationists give they'd probably say NO they haven't.
Strange way to spell terrorism, genital mutilation, and sexism.Don't like competition.

Rock solid whataboutism. No, I can't say I find myself wanting to do anything with you.This is a fun game. How about I list a few negatives, maybe quote some scripture and you pick the denomination responsible. Want to play?

But those things arn't specifically Islams fault, thier plenty of other factors that gave rise to the situation in the middle east. And these problems arn't even specific to Islam Christian militias within africa that commit terror acts exist. I've seen plenty of sexism from Christianity as well. You can't just stereotype an entire religion and all of it's followers.Strange way to spell terrorism, genital mutilation, and sexism.

How are you certain that this is so? Surely, merely using bible verses and threats of damnation are not going to sway people that are convinced by evidence.
So... what do you think is so good about creationist rebuttals, and how do you know they are valid?
Genital mutilation - like circumcision (I am not against it, but since we are making accusations)? Did you not see all the crosses and praying at the Jan.6 domestic terrorism display? Are you not old enough to remember Christian Eric Rudolf's bombing spree terrorism? Evangelical minister Paul Hill's terroristic murder of people? Or the Christian terrorism of bombing, burning, and shooting up of supposed abortion clinics?Strange way to spell terrorism, genital mutilation, and sexism.
Google owns YouTube, and supposedly they operate separately. Do these trends include creationism research on YouTube as well? If not, maybe more people are using (switching to) YouTube for their research.From Google Trends, showing interest in subjects by way of Google searches over time. Note that these results are for the United States only. I'm not sure if including other countries might skew the results, since outside of the U.S. creationism/ID generally doesn't have as large a presence.

Feel free to substitute 'interest' instead... that is the word used in the OP.I don't know how you can seriously put 'research' and YouTube together is the same sentence.
It's the equivalent of getting your information from Comic Books.
The reason that there are few requests for ID 'science' is simple - there literally is no ongoing body of scientific research available to draw on, with or without YouTube.
ID has passed away.

Come on now... the OP refers to the 'Creationism/ID' trend, not just ID.Cause and effect. There is no interest in ID research because there is no research to be interested in. ID doesn't even publish stuff about ID. ID has been very quiet for years.
ID started out as a means of smuggling Creationism into schools under a different name. That was clearly established in Dover vs Kitzmiller. It's 'research' consisted mainly of opinion pieces published in the Discovery Institute parody of a technical journal.
Now ID is dead we can all stop pretending it's a scientific concept and go back to Creationism and the real agenda.
At least, Creationism is honest about being a religious belief.

You’re sure reading a lot into my comment. All I’m saying is that it may be possible that many of those interested in Creationism/ID are now searching more on YouTube (for example), if it’s not included in the declining google search trend results.Same thing. ID is Creationism with a fake 'scientific' veneer.
