Does it bother you at all that the page is, well, dumb?

Quote:Here's just one excerpt :


Quote:Its teachings affect us more than most would like to admit, which are, fundamentally, diametrically opposed to Christianity. In evolution, new species arise from the deaths of others; therefore, death brought man into the world. The Bible teaches the opposite: man brought death into the world (Romans 5:12).
<snipped>

New species arise from the deaths of others? I object, sir: new species arise from the lives of new organisms. Those organisms that stay alive and spread that life by breeding are the engine of new species, not the ones that die. Those are the opposite, the failed ones, that don't propagate. Hell, there doesn't even necessarily have to be competition between species, as symbiotes and cooperative groups show. This assertion is wrong at every conceivable scale.

You think, next time, you could quote a guy who actually understands the subject he's seeking to speak on?
