Are creationists ignorant, stupid, or both?

Question by khard: Are creationists ignorant, stupid, or both?

Evolution does exist, and to say it does not shows tremendous ignorance to scientific evidence. Not only does it exist, but after a general understanding of genetics and simple reasoning, it’s obvious. Not only is it obvious, but evidence in the form of fossils, comparitive anatomy, embriology, etc is overwhelming. It is “only a theory,” but so is all of science, and a theory is HEAVILY BACKED explanation that has withstood time. Evolution is FACT among the scientific community, who do a poor job of communicating to the general public.

I have nothing against Christianity. But just because a book says everything was created in six days does not mean it was literally created in six days. And evolution does not oppose religion.

So my questions is why. Why do so many people (more than half of Americans) disagree with evolution, and embrace its pseudoscience alternatives – creationism and Intelligent Design? Are they stupid, or have they been poorly educated about the topic?
First off, ignorance and stupidity are not the same thing. Ignorance is lacking knowledge (education), whereas stupidity is lacking intelligence.

Of course you do not see macroevolution at play, because it takes a tremendous amount of time. If you want a current example of evolution, however, look no further than bacteria. Why do you think new antibiotics must constantly be made? Because the bacteria immune to it live and therefore reproduce more than the other bacteria. Your result is a population who is now almost entirely immune to the antibiotics.

AH come on! That question cannot be answered. It will vary from person to person. Yes,evolution is heavily backed, but that’s what faith is- FAITH because you may not always have palpable evidence that humans arent alone and yet people believe. There are two types of people. People who need to be able to see and touch evidence to believe and those who feel it in their vertebrae when they know something cant just be a coincidence. The real question is what person are YOU? Well ,that my two cents. =)
