Re 134: Problem is -- creationism -- especially YEC -- is not just anti-Darwin. It has to reject significant parts of chemistry, geology, astronomy, paleontology, archeology, and other sciences.

You make a very important point, which is usually lost on the creationists and IDers. Namely, that everything we think we know about evolution is supported by interconnected understandings from every branch of science.

Of course, creation by {poof} cannot be ruled out. But the interesting thing is that science has not needed {poof} for more than 300 years as we came to understand energy (and heat), to understand germs (vs. demon possession), to understand electricity (vs. Thor sending lightning bolts).

Quoting a devout anti-evolutionist on a similar thread who asserted that "evolution is a secular humanist, atheist materialist, anti-Christian, communist nazi plot to undermine moral values" and fluoridate the water supply.
