How Do You Annoy a Scientist?
If you’re a theist and you aren’t interested in intelligent discussion but just want to irritate someone who understands the theory of evolution, here are a few phrases you might find useful. (Use as your own risk.)
- “It’s just a theory.”
- “Darwinism is just as dogmatic as any religion.”
- “It isn’t science, because you can’t see it happening.”
- “Darwin was wrong about something, so all of evolution is wrong.”
- “Micro-evolution, maybe; macro-evolution, no.”
- “They’ve never found any transitional fossils.”
- “They say that’s a transitional fossil, but it’s perfectly designed for the environment it lived in.”
- “That’s not a transition between a dinosaur and a bird, it’s a dinosaur that had feathers.”
- “There’s not enough dust on the moon for the universe to be old.”
- “Evolution can’t account for the origin of life.”
- “Fossils were all formed during Noah’s flood.”
- “The flood carved the Grand Canyon, too.”
- “Legends about dragons are really distant memories from when people and dinosaurs lived together.”
- “Evolution violates the second law of thermodynamics.”
- “You can’t make something out of nothing.”
- “Random processes can’t create information.”
- “That primate fossil is probably just another hoax.”
- “Mutations are always bad.”
- “The order of creation in Genesis is the same as what scientists propose.”
- “That evidence is also consistent with intelligent design.”
- “They found human and dinosaur footprints together.”
- “If you carbon date dinosaur bones, it turns out they’re only thousands of years old.”
- “If a jaw bone had evolved into an ear bone, then somewhere in the middle would be an animal with too many joints in its jaw so it couldn’t eat.”
- “Using fossils to date layers and layers to date fossils is circular reasoning.”
- “How would animals know what to evolve into?”
- “We should teach the controversy and let children make up their own minds.”
- “If man evolved from monkeys, then why are there still monkeys?”
- “Bananas were obviously designed for humans to eat.”
- “Scientists argue about evolution because even they aren’t convinced it’s true.”
- “The speed of light used to be faster.”
- “Science is always proven wrong eventually.”
- “Darwin became a Christian on his death bed.”
