http://www.patheos.com/blogs/friendlyatheist/2017/11/26/this-pastor-thinks-he-disproved-evolution-because-its-too-hard-to-comprehend/"God did it." Short and easy to understand.
"Tiny random changes over time." Nobody knows what that even means and nobody understands it.
Boom! Checkmate, atheists! Evolution is too hard to understand and therefore it must be false!
Also, Earth is hollow and Hell is at its center.

(15,359 posts)That's one of my favorite willfully ignorant oversimplifications. I hear something like that and I don't even bother to respond. Don't even think starting to explain mutations, natural selection or any of it even a simply as possible, will have a prayer of getting through to them.

Theist logic is such a fun game... Let's see 0 ÷ 0 = 5.. anything ÷ anything = God, therefore God = 5... wow, I know everything.

(15,359 posts)they are embarrassed to be descended from, probably had to understand natural selection fairly well. Or things real close to it. Their descendants figured out how to domesticate and selectively breed animals. Who knows how far back for some of them. That kind of thing keeps getting pushed back in time the more we learn.
They had the knowledge of their environment, and the plants and animals they relied on to survive, that would rival out surgeons in expertise. They saw when a new bull, or cow for some animals, took over a herd. They saw the things that happened, and the new offspring, good and bad. They probably knew right from the start to breed their livestock with wild stock when they needed new blood. We know the plains tribes would hobble their mares where the wild stallions could get to them. No telling how long ago people knew to do that.

(12,132 posts)that Stanford researchers have disproven evolution. That it's too impossible but a god-creator is a given.
I often wonder about that boy.
(NB: Nope, not once has he linked me to a study or published article or even a footnote from Stanford researchers but he still believes it.)

(16,484 posts)1. Kurt Goedel's philosophical proof. It's a mathematical masterstroke, but it rests on ridiculous, unrealistic premises, like that we can clearly divide the world into good and evil and that good only begats good and that evil only begats evil.
2. The God-Particle. Yes. The Higgs-Boson has the nick-name "God-Particle" (because it was so hard to find), and some people took the name God-Particle as proof that scientists have discovered God.

(12,132 posts)he's repeats often how it takes more faith to believe in evolution than in god. We heard that dumb shit all throughout our youth in baptist churches.
