New trend in evolution deniers.

New trend in evolution deniers.
The monkey trial was not enough, the recent Dover trial was not enough. Now the new tactic is to argue that DNA disproves Darwin. What do we have to say to counter that bullshit here.

Well, HOW do they argue that it disproves Evolution? That would be kind of important to know first...

Unfortunately, if you value an educated society, you have to fight idiots like Ben Carson, and the Texas School board.

This.

I need to know how they're arguing the ridiculous fact before I counter it.
"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

Unfortunately this maroon has 87k gullible morons buying her pseudo science. https://twitter.com/A_M_Perez and there are unfortunately even more out there, I am dealing with one of her followers right now as I type this.

Stupidly trying to claim since I say that we share DNA with fruit, that means evolution claims a banana gave birth to a human, they cannot fucking understand TIME and adaptation make life look different.

Awesome. So nothing's changed, in actuality.

Deniers still have a Pre-K understanding of the thing they know can't be right.

RE: New trend in evolution deniers.
If that is the argument, it is literally too dumb to counter. Or does shaking my head with a disillusioned look on my face and slowly saying "N....no?" count as a debunking?

There is nothing quite as dumb as a creatard.

Why didn't God instill in them the winning argument in the first place instead of letting his follower's arguments about creationism evolve over time in response to selection pressures experienced in the arena of ideas ??
