Whenever you look at the "arguments" of conservatives and fundagelicals, they haven't changed since the 1980s. If then. Back in the 1980s, they were still using arguments from the 1950s and older; newer "arguments" only happen when something new comes along, like tabletop RPGs. They do not seem to be aware that society and science have changed a great deal since those "arguments" were first fossilized. Violent crime has drastically dropped, NYC isn't insolvent, evolution and global warming are settled science, democratic socialism of the European variety hasn't turned into Stalinism, etc, etc, etc.

I can't debate Creationists, because it's like arguing with a two-year-old. They don't care about facts, they don't even understand facts, they only get holding their breath and throwing a tantrum until you leave in disgust, and then claiming they 'won'.
They have no science to debate with, so what's the debate? "The Bible says so", is not a scientific argument, and not even all *Christian* religious denominations agree that "the Bible says so" on the subject of evolution.
