It was an hour long lecture about the creation of Earth, and dinosaurs and man lived on earth at the same time. We called them Dragons. Talks about carbon dating was created by the devil. On google video.

If it's the guy I think you're talking about then I don't think he was "crazy", in fact he made some very good arguments. Not enough to sway me though.

I don't think Scientists and Creationism should be in the same sentence together.

why?

he has a standing offer of $250,000 to anyone who can give any empirical evidence (scientific proof) for evolution. so go for it, prove him wrong.

But you just put them in the same sentence.

Heh, he crafted the challenge so that it can't be met, unless humans develop a lifespan of thousands upon thousands of years. You can see a species make minor adaptations, but no human is going to watch an ape turn into a human-like creature. You'd need a time-lapse camera capable of sitting around taking pictures for a million years.

I'll also put forth a challenge - someone needs to prove to me that electrons exist, and that it's not magical energy juice flowing through tiny flat pipes called "printed circuits." And outlets of course have holes in them. Why? To provide conduits for this juice to flow.

In order to prove to me that electrons exist, I need to see them, individually with my own eyes. I also need to be able to feel a single electron.

If these conditions aren't met, I'll be forced to conclude that electrons don't exist.

No one was able to prove to him that taxes exist, so he doesn't believe in them. He considers the whole tax institution to be a religion. :laugh:
