I claim that, using current evolutionists’ methodology, many of their claims cannot be validated as true or false. This is because they claim that specific evidence validates the truth of evolution, but when contrary data appears they claim that is evidence as well. Cornelius Hunter explains the problem well: "There is nothing wrong with a theory that is comfortable with different outcomes, but there is something wrong when one of those outcomes is then claimed as supporting evidence. If a theory can predict both A and not-A, then neither A nor not-A can be used as evidence for the theory." Evolution, as it is promoted today, does exactly this as I show below.

If the title sounds familiar, there is a reason. It was the official theme of the debate in February between Ken Ham of Answers in Genesis and Bill Nye, the “Science Guy.” Ham did a credible job in defending Genesis but was limited in the time he had available to cover all the bases. So, I have become brave enough to try to accomplish the task of answering in more detail the question the debate theme poses.

Evolution's "Dirty Little Secret" is Satan's "Clever Little Trick"
This article is an editorial comment by LSI Journal Editor Warren Krug.
Science and religion are really not compatible, but for many scientists it is advantageous to claim that they are. Because liberal religious people have been such important allies in scienc's struggle against creationism, groups such as the National Academy of Sciences state that religion and science are not in conflict.

Critique of B.C. Johnson's Atheist Debater's Handbook. "While there will continue to be skeptical arguments against the possibility of divine design, this essay has shown that, despite the appeal to common sense, a large portion of skeptics' arguments simply have no logical appeal."

Smart People Do Doubt Evolution by Jeffrey Stueber
Evolutionists proclaim only the ignorant have doubts about evolution. However, some very intelligent non-creationists like Richard Milton, David Stove, Norman Macbeth, David Berlinski, and Michael Denton have shown otherwise.

Excerpt: "Albert Einstein's General and Special Theories of Relativity predicted time dilation and space curvature, both of which have actually been observed. Such confirmations are strong indications that the basic theory is actually true. Young earth creationists are particularly adept at shocking the materialistic scientific community with expectations which turn out to be verified."
