woot studying evolution and creationism right now.
So, what's your theory? There seems to be an influx of creationists that believe in evolution, without being able to see the contradictions that makes. It all comes down to the fact that they will only look more stupid if they deny that evolution exists, so they find some way to work it into their beliefs.
"In science it often happens that scientists say, "You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken," and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time something like that happened in politics or religion."
