Well, there does another irony meter.
And I hope you actuall have that $1,000,000,000. I am not a scientist so if someone were to claim that the theory of evolution was false, I would probably use what I've read to back up my claim that it does. I cannot know everything, so I do place a certain amount of trust in scientists and the scientific method because it's proven to be the best way we have of understanding the world. But I wouldn't call it "parroting" unless by "parroting" you mean bringing up relevant factual evidence. Also, I have read some articles by creationists. That's one of the reason I find creationism so freaking ridiculous and evolution to be such a strong and viable theory.
Creationist articles. Ah, those are always fun. They get facts that anyone with a high school education should know wrong. They make the strangest, most convoluted, and completely nonsensical arguments. It's a terrible character flaw, but I actually get a kick out of reading Creationist articles. They're just so freaking hilarious!
And I doubt you're telling the truth about those 20 university debates, Porsha. Though, admittedly, I'd be embarrassed if I were to engage in a debate with you. Embarrassed not by you, but for you. Because Creationist arguments are usually so inept, ignorant, and ridiculous.
Most leading evolutionary scientists don't debate Creationists because they have better things to do with their time. They don't debate Creationists because Creationists always trot out the same ignorant arguments and often get their facts completely wrong and pay no attention at all to what the person they are supposed to be debating actually says. Besides, it gives the impression that the theory of evolution and creationism are on equal footing when they very clearly are not.
