once a debate has reached a conclusion
You must be new here...
From the amount of reading I have done recently, it appears that creationists (particularly Young Earth Creationists) are muddying the waters and trying to make it seem as if they have an equal or greater amount of work supporting their positions.
Absolutely. Now, its not that all the laypeople are evil, its that they as congregations are being lied to and creationists are breed to be lazy thinkers. An average person claiming that there
are Creation Science Theories probably heard it from someone else and never bothered to look for themselves if there actually was. Somewhere at the top, though, there's got to be the evil liars who are propagating it all. Have you heard of the
Wedge Document? <-- clicky
But with sufficient digging (I am a researcher, its my thing) a lot of it seems to be the same inofrmation over and over again, or information that has been refuted a number of times.
Correct again, Sir! We even see where the original propagater makes some sort of typo, say writing 1976 instead of 1967, and then every other creationist that uses their work has obviosuly never bothered to check anything because they're all using the wrong number. IIRC
(if i remember correctly), they've even based whole calulations that they think refutes evolution on a simple typo that could have easily been found if they simply looked up the orginal source and read it for themselves.
I believe that it would be of benefit to the regular Joe who does not want to wade through all of this info to have a resource like this.
I dunno... The regular Joe who's sitting in church hatin' on evolution with the rest of the congregation is being spoonfed creationist lies faster than you can reach him with a spreadsheet. Besides, if you're not showing creationism in a positive light, then you must be one of them there EVILutionists. So why should he trust it? More than the word of god!?

There's no such thing.
