Why do creationists ask for proof of evolution and then ignore the answers?

Because they are religious nuts and they’ve already decided what the answer is - based on their dusty old book and the highly dubious mental practice of “faith” - which basically means “Believe what you’ve been told and don’t worry your pretty little head thinking about the alternatives!”

It’s not surprise that people who’s entire world-view is shrouded in “FAITH!!” find this situation intolerable…so they simply deny any and all facts and proofs - ignore all debunkings…because they’ve somehow arrived at this belief that “FAITH” is absolutely everything…and therefore facts and proofs and evidence of all kind can and must be ignored.

The evidence for evolution is utterly overwhelming - and the creationists are really as stubbornly stupid as the Flat Earthers.

Is there a type of function where every point has exactly one tangent line passing through it? If yes, what is this type of function called?

Religion doesn’t need to exist anymore - it doesn’t explain a single thing…it’s almost entirely debunked.

We now understand that “The Garden of Eden” and “Noah’s Ark” are just stories - they have absolutely no grounding in fact.

When we figured out that little Timmy died because a bacteria invaded his body from the dirty water in the well that we all drink from - and it WASN’T God needing him for some higher purpose in heaven…well, that reduced the significance of God.

So those stories are now “Allegories” - not “Gospel Truth” - so God got a little smaller again.

Well - enjoy your ignorance - and try to ignore the fact that the device you’re reading this on only works because we understand Quantum theory - and probably contains a GPS that only works because (a) Satellites are NOT faked by NASA, (b) Relativity actually works.

It’s kinda ironic that all of these people believe that some giant conspiracy is trying to hide the truth from them - yet in their efforts to reveal that conspiracy - they’re handily ignoring the giant effort to show the truth to them as clearly as possible.

Science has this annoying (for them) habit of producing something called “The God Of The Gaps”.

We just make sure we have clean water - and fewer people died…so God got a little smaller that day.

Now, here in the 21st century - we can explain very nearly everything from the beginning of time itself - to the universe around us today - and all without any supernatural involvement.

Even fundamental morality can be reduced to “Do as you would like others to do unto you.” - and for good sociologically defensible reasons.

Sure - we still have a few loose ends to tie up - but they’re getting tied. Quantum Gravity - Dark Matter/Energy…that kind of thing. Not stuff that matters in the slightest on a day-to-day basis.

The Venn Diagram of Creationists and Flat Earthers has a hell of a lot of overlap…which is for a reason. Bible Literalists are behind most of their combined nonsense.

What was it like being spanked as a kid?

Meanwhile, the wonder that is the world and the greater universe around us - fits together with the simplest of principles. The conservation laws, Newton’s laws, Einsteins fix for those laws, the Standard Model of particle physics…and not a whole lot else.

Weird! I don’t get it at all.

And those overlap the global warming deniers and the anti-vaxxers.

Can you fly an American flag in the UK in your own private property there? What is the UK’s government stance on that? And if yes, do you also have to fly the UK flag or the American flag can fly solo?

All of Genesis is complete an utter twaddle. Not one word of it fits with the evidence.

Then the Flat Earthers find it necessary to deny most of space flight - so they overlap handily with the Moon Landing deniers.

And all of this is because they are all really pissed that science seems to disagree with them and provides an annoying amount of convincing evidence that their entire, fictitious world-view does not fit the available facts.

What was the worst spanking you ever got? Why did you get it, and how was it given to you?

The role of a supernatural being was important in Medieval society because they had zero explanations for most of the things that happened in their lives. Diseases and bad weather events were “The Work of God” - and were done for some unfathomable reason.

But as science grew and gradually got a foot-hold on finding explanations for these things.

God gets a little smaller.

How can a native English speaker say "it was nice talking to you" in French without using that exact phrase?

There are really no “gaps” for a God to hide in.
