Evolution is proven false!

Well sure, I guess I am more shocked that such garbage remains, seeing as how easy it is to debunk their lies - even the subtle ones. I guess the owners/authors of such such websites/ articles don't really need to worry about their sheeple doubting them.

Of course not. Why would a "sheeple" go looking for something that contradicts their beliefs?

Your argument here doesn't address the best presentation of the first cause argument. More study on your part is needed. I suggest the work of Peter Kreeft.

Metaphysical answers are not valid for physical questions.

Philosophy has taken us some of the journey towards understanding, but has long been eclipsed by science, its younger and more measured sister.

I haven't often asked creationists if Google was broken on their computer, if their ISP blocked access to all search engines in their part of the world.

Surely, at some point, they see that the Emporer has no clothes. My discussion of transitional fossils with creationists is one of my personal favorites. If you ask them, straight up, have you done a Google search for "transitional fossils", you get some really interesting responses. Some refuse to even do the Google search. They are afraid of seeing what they already suspect exists, the transitional fossils that they are trying to deny the existence of. When they realize that they have backed themself into a corner and begin to discuss the actual fossils, it becomes abundantly clear that they have no intention of even comparing the fossils to one another.

As some have pointed out, creationists are their own worst enemy. The fact that they have to rely on ignorance and dishonesty says a lot.

Also notice that I am referring to creationists, not christians. Papias makes some excellent comments in this vein.

One other tact I have seen is that no fossil can be a transitional because they have already decided there aren't any transitionals.

My favorite question that you use all the time here is, "what features do you think a transitional fossil should have." Strangely, I haven't seen much of the classic "half a wing" response here lately....
