As Richard Dawkins recounts in his "Greatest Show on Earth" they ignore them and then demand evidence.
Creationists are quite possibly the stupidest people on the planet.[/code]
What gets me is when they take actual evidence and then shoehorn it to fit their preconceived beliefs. I've had debates with these dimwits and they'll insist that fossilized sea creatures found on mountains is evidence of Noah's flood! (Never mind that it actually proves that the mountain was once the sea floor. These yahoos don't understand how tectonic plates work.) They've also argued that the Grand Canyon is more proof of Noah's flood. The canyon formed when all that water suddenly went rushing down the river, don't ya know! (Again, never mind that something like the Grand Canyon could not possibly have formed as the result of a single cataclysmic event.) But the grand prize has to go to the imbeciles who insist that man and dinosaurs lived together! Apparently, they can't deny that dinosaurs existed, so they are forced to take the absolutely preposterous position that dinosaurs lived with man. Hey, whatever works just so long as you don't have to face reality!
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
