1. Ugh
Full of non sequitures, and nonsense that makes my brain hurt.

Also, bizarre remarks on the site like:

'If evolution is true then somebody is on top, and by definition, everyone else is underneath. Nothing, therefore, is wrong with racism, Naziism, communism, homosexuality, abortion, the philosophies of Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, Mao Tse Tung, etc... and all other social ills that plague our lives'

So they equate homosexuality (and abortion) with the views of murderous dictators such as Hitler and Stalin?!

One of the nastiest aspects is their systematic attempts to miseducate children.

2. The funny part about that is that if Christianity is true...
...then Hitler and the Nazi government was appointed by God:
Romans 13:1-7
Let every soul be in subjection to the higher powers: for there is no power but of God; and the powers that be are ordained of God. Therefore he that resisteth the power, withstandeth the ordinance of God: and they that withstand shall receive to themselves judgment. For rulers are not a terror to the good work, but to the evil. And wouldest thou have no fear of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise from the same: for he is a minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is a minister of God, an avenger for wrath to him that doeth evil. Wherefore ye must needs be in subjection, not only because of the wrath, but also for conscience'sake. For this cause ye pay tribute also; for they are ministers of God's service, attending continually upon this very thing. Render to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor.

And don't forget 1 Peter 2:13-16...
Be subject to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether to the king, as supreme; or unto governors, as sent by him for vengeance on evil- doers and for praise to them that do well. For so is the will of God, that by well- doing ye should put to silence the ignorance of foolish men: as free, and not using your freedom for a cloak of wickedness, but as bondservants of God.


There you have it--all governments are appointed by God and it is the duty of every Christian to obey and honor them.

Epic Fail!

Can these people really be so stupid and ignorant?

They want to turn up at your kids' school with a tortoise which they'll tell them is a post-flood dinosaur which hasn't been alive long enough to get really big (because "reptiles never stop growing")!

5. BZZZZTTT!!! Thanks for playing.
Actually, somebody is on top. They have been for at least 3.5 billion years.

4. LOL. Um, yeah...and?!
Yup, volcanoes are definitely real. Hard to argue with that. So what? So, 4300 years isn't old enough? Let's see what these creationists look like at that age.
