Creationists, what evidence have you of your claim?
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence... so I'm curious, what evidence have you FOR your claim? So not against evolution, but FOR creationism?
"look around you" doesn't quantify, because a natural explanation is far more plausible then a supernatural one...

Well lets see... The evidence is all around you. You seriously think all of these things came from nothing? Just a big bang? please! The glory of God is evident in this world.
But now I ask you the same thing... what proof have you of evolution and the big bang?
NONE! That's right!

They have no evidence. Creationism and "intelligent design" fail to meet the basic definition of a scientific idea: its proponents do not present testable hypotheses and do not provide evidence for their views that can be verified or duplicated by subsequent researchers. What creationists do is substitute magic for rational explanation and pass it off as "science," when a reasonable, objective observer would reach the inescapable conclusion that creationism/intelligent design are nothing more than interesting theological arguments. But they are NOT SCIENCE, which makes them lies.
Creationism is pseudo-science. "Pseudo" means FALSE. That says it all right there.
Add: I read somewhere that more than 65% of American Christians believe in creationism. Americans are in deep dooh-dooh intellectual trouble if that statistic is true.

THEY HAVE NONE. All must bow down before His Noodly Appendage!
Well lets see... The evidence is all around you. You seriously think all of these things came from nothing? Just god? please! The glory of His Noodly Appendage is evident in this world.
But now I ask you the same thing... what proof have you of god?
NONE! That's right!
Source(s): Humour. The point is, what makes god and jesus more likely than being touched by His Noodly Appendage of the Flying Spaghetti Monster? Nothing. They both lack proof. If, as a Christian, you question the validity of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, you should not hesitate to do the same to your own religion. rAmen! Atheist. - Weise EnteLv 71 decade ago
They have none. Ask a creationist to develop a dating method that will always give the correct age for known artifacts and never more than 6000.
They will run in terror.

I watched a very interesting show the other day on PBS about archaeological finds that are in correlation with the bible. Ancient establishments and various findings are proving the stories in the bible to be facts. Such as King David and Goliath. They have found remains of a vast empire that belonged to King David. They also have proof of Moses and his people making there way into the promised land and settling in startling high numbers within the desert. Slowly but surely, facts are showing through. Blessed are those who need no proof to believe, and rely soley on faith. Many highly respected archeologists have dedicated their careers to proving the stories in the bible. Do the research.
Truth hurts doesn't it?

2. creationist quote mining (like quoting part of a scientists' sentence to make it sound like he's saying something completely different): http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/quotes/mine/projec...
3. list of practically all creationist arguments, categorized and refuted:

I just *love* the "look around you!" people. I think mainly because it can be used for *anything*.
"I just *know* Batman has been stealing my underwear! Just look around you, isn't it obvious, *duh*!"
