Debating with a creationist
#11
RE: Debating with a creationist
The best thing to do is to follow Richard Dawkins' advice: debating with them will make them feel like this is a matter up to debate. It's not. Just arguing with them means they win since it makes them feel like they have a point, it gives them credibility.

Best thing to do, tell them that Evolution is a fact, that Creationism is bullcrap, and that there is not even a need for discussion on the matter.

You can't convince them anyways.
