Yet, this site is still explaining their stance, why they believe what they do, and challenging some claims that scientists have made that have holes.You know what happens when creationists tackle the most robust scientific theory science has posited, Rev? They have to make up "holes", and prey on your ignorance and willingness to believe whatever they spout because you have to or else you would have to face reality and question the foundations of your belief.
Can you appreciate how ridiculously suspect it is when a religious group tries to challenge science because if the science is true, their claim can't be true? You cannot appreciate what not having a vested interest is, I think. I have no vested interest in evolution, it just happens to best reflect reality. You, on the other hand, would have to question things you'd rather not question if it were true, so you will do whatever you need to do to make yourself believe it isn't. This, extrapolated, is why AiG is a ridiculous source for scholarly science.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
