Top misconceptions of Theory of Evolution you had to deal with

RE: Top misconceptions of Theory of Evolution you had to deal with
I don't know why people find natural selections so hard to understand, at least on a very basic level.

Their objections are often the equivalent of saying you can't get to a billion from zero just by adding 1 each time.

0, 1...

Yeah but 1 is still a small number!

2...

Yah but 2 is still a small number, it's still a single digit number!

....58...

But that's still a small number! It's nowhere near a billion!

I call them deliberately lies and ignorance.  There's more than enough evidence and sources now for anyone with an open mind to see the information for themselves.

Indeed. I can forgive ignorance when someone first shows up on this forum. But once they've had it explained to them two or three times (or even for years...) and they still produce strawmen, it is pure dishonesty.
