Antievolutionist Bingo

Skeptico and TechSkeptic came up with a great idea, that of "Creationist Bingo". I'm taking that a step further and automating the creation of "antievolutionist bingo" cards. Each time you bring up this page, you will get a new card.

AntiEvolutionist Bingo
CC215. There are gaps between reptiles and mammals.	CA340. Evolutionists do not accept debate challenges.	CH503. Noah's ark has been found near Dogubayazit, Turkey.	CH513. Animals hibernated on the ark.	CB921. New structures would be useless until fully developed.
CA114.1. Lord Kelvin was a creationist.	CH055. Noncreationist Christians are compromisers.	CA113. Quote mining	CC111. Malachite man was found in Cretaceous sandstone.	CA114.10. Fabre was a creationist.
CB030. Early molecules would have decayed.	CD101. Entire geological column does not exist.	References an antievolutionist as an authority	CC214. There are gaps between reptiles and birds.	CC150. If we are descended from apes, why are there still apes around?
CA301.1. Naturalistic science will miss a supernatural explanation.	CA230. Interpreting evidence is not the same as observation.	CI111.2. Specified complexity characterizes what intelligent agents do.	CA230.1. Evolutionists interpret evidence on the basis of their preconceptions.	CH505.8. Ed Behling was led to the ark in 1973.
CB150. Functional genetic sequences are too rare to evolve from one to another.	CB910. No new species have been observed.	CA221. Were you there?	CA118. Your arguments do not count because you are not qualified.	CB200.1. Bacterial flagella are irreducibly complex.

Each religious antievolutionist claim on the card links to the mainstream science responses collected by Mark Isaak in his excellent "Index to Creationist Claims". Be sure to check those out.

Antievolutionists Say the Darndest Things

Antievolutionists often express outrage over alleged incivility from those who oppose their efforts to evade the establishment clause of the First Amendment. But they have no difficulty in dishing out the abuse themselves. Here is a sample from the Invidious Comparisons thread that documents egregious behavior on the part of the religious antievolution advocates.

IDC advocate Phillip E. Johnson:

Gould’s uncomfortable situation reminds me of the self-created predicament of Mikhail Gorbachev in the last years of the Soviet Empire. Gorbachev recognized that something had gone wrong with the Communist system, but thought that the system itself could be preserved if it was reformed. His democratic friends warned him that the Marxist fundamentalists would inevitably turn against him, but he was unwilling to endanger his position in the ruling elite by following his own logic to its necessary conclusion. Gould, like Gorbachev, deserves immense credit for bringing glasnost to a closed society of dogmatists. And, like Gorbachev, he lives on as a sad reminder of what happens to those who lack the nerve to make a clean break with a dying theory.
