It's not. I've had creationists "witness" against complex numbers in class. Even on this thread we have at least one creationist continually posting nonsense with respect to rotational mathematics. I'm sure these anti-mathematical posters appreciate your support.

Some creationists make mistakes. So do some evolutionists. There was an instance of school textbooks issued in the 1990s that claimed that the development of the human fetus reflected the course of evolution from single cell life upward through ever higher species until reaching primate and finally human status. This is a misconception based on early 20th Century speculation that was rejected by mainstream science in the 1960s. Yet this misconception was kept alive by reputable schoolbook publishers some 30 years after the theory was rejected.
Would it be valid to state that it is difficult to teach biology to evolutionists because of this error?

Mathmatics don't stand the universe or the laws of physics on their head. Sophistry does. The problem isn't math, nor will it ever be math. The problem is that you guys are unconstrained by anything at all because you've never been constrained to any law. In lawlessness, "I posit" becomes the law and that is precisely what you demonstrate here today, then act offended that someone corrects you. It's high time someone did.
