A Creationist Connundrum

A connundrum popped in my head from reading this great post

Creationist question: If we are descended from apes, why are there still apes around?

Answer through counterquestion: If creationism evolved into Intelligent Design why are there still creationists? (Effective due to its truth.)

And then Harsh Reality hit: whenever you get an idea you ain't first. Sigh.

There’s a massive compendium of creationism-targeted evidence for evolution. Would you like me to track it down for you?

I think the best one I’ve seen is talkorigins.org — is that the one you have in mind? Would be interested either way

Yeah it’s that one.

My favorite part is;

http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/comdesc/

Specifically;

http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/comdesc/section1.html#fundamental_unity

because it has the table describing the genetic code.

Incidentally, could I have used html instead of copypasta?

I think the standard WordPress plugin allows HTML. test
