Things Creationists HATE

Supernova 1987a
This was an important astronomical event that was observed on the Earth in--guess when--1987. The supernova is 169,000 light years away, and lies in the dwarf galaxy called the Large Magellanic Cloud, which can be seen from the southern hemisphere. That means the explosion happened 169,000 years ago. But that can''t be possible if the universe is only 6K years old, so pick your favorite creationist "explanation":

· The universe is way tinier than astronomers say it is.

· The speed of light has changed.

· God created the light of the supernova within 6,000 light years of Earth, so that it falsely "reveals" an "event" that never really happened.

For one, the light of day is created before the sun from which it comes. If we assume it was some divine form of light, requiring no material source, then what need of the sun? In the same curious order were plants created before the sun, which is needed for photosynthesis (especially confounding to the day-age folks).



How about that...

And yet you post it just the same

Some of it''s pretty funny; most Creationists with a clue don''t try to use the 2LoT to defend themselves, for example (geez, he harps on that a fair bit). But it''s not without its funny bits

I love the SRDF one especially

quote:

Satan''s Rapid Deployment Force (SRDF)

Revealed At Last! SHOCKING PROOF that Satan is active in the world and working to defeat creationism! Every time that we creationists bring up one of those impossible changes from one created kind to another (macroevolution), the SRDF gets to work and plants in the rocks some fake fossils, carefully "aging" them and putting them in the "proper" strata so that paleontologists can find them in a few years. Then they''re shoved in our faces as examples of the major transitions that we know to be impossible.
We said a hyena can''t change into a whale. The SRDF gets to work and presto! scientists are digging up Ambulocetus , Pakicetus , Prozeuglodon, and a passle of others.
We knew damn well that no lizard ever sprouted wings and feathers, so the SRDF made up those phony Archaeopteryx jobs that were just TOO perfect! I mean, teeth, bony tail, claws on the fingers, along with perfect flight feathers--come on! Since we absolutely wouldn''t accept such an obvious fake, now they''re throwing in a bunch of others in various stages of birdness, like Protoavis , Sinornis , Hesperornis, and Ichthyornis .
They claimed we were all fish, then we grew legs and lungs and crawled out on land--what rot! Where are the transitions? Enter the SRDF, and now we''ve got Eusthenopteron, Panderichtys, Acanthostega, and labyrynthodonts.
And of course the highest priority mission of the SRDF is to "prove" that people are just improved apes (whereas Genesis 2:7 tells us clearly that we are improved dirt). We keep telling them that there are "missing links" between apes and humans, and they keep finding something to fill whatever gap we point out. After all, isn''t Lucy (Australopithecus afarensis) just a little too convenient? Throw in A. ramidus and africanus and then H. habilis and erectus, and it''s hard to find much of a gap anymore where a link could be missing.

True, it should be retitled to "Literal Creationist Fundamentalists", but let''s face it, that''s a bitch of a google query.

I am tired with all this creationist vs evolutionist.

so I make my own conclusion that I am god.

I find it laughable that everyone still assumes that creationism and evolutionism are both mutually inclusive and mutually exclusive. For God''s sake (no pun intended), the two are almost completely orthogonal concepts. God either made the universe or he didn''t. Animals either evolve or they don''t. Not much correlation there.
