Actually, if you study evolution, you night find special clues that contradict the idea!!(My mom told me that.)

It's true. If you read The Origin of Species, take every third letter, and rearrange them, you get a really great recipe for pea soup.
I've heard this exchange before:
Kid #3: My Mommy says evolution is wrong.
Nick Naylor: Oh, is your Mommy a biologist?
Kid #3: No.
Nick Naylor: A scientific researcher of some kind?
Kid #3: No.
Nick Naylor: Well then she's hardly a credible expert, is she?
Okay, I changed it a bit.
I don't actually see too much fundie here. This is a half-way decent approach to the scientific method. All flameofchrist needs to do now is to go do the research.
Of course, if she/he then claims that evolution is incorrect, he/she will then have some serious explaining to do, since we have pictures. And also DNA and fossils. And my cat has thumbs.

"if you study evolution, you night find special clues that contradict the idea!"
Actually you Mom is repeating a creationist preamble to loads of misinformation and outright bullshit.
Both Hovind and Comfort have claimed to have "studied evolution thourally" while they have only perused the literature to cherry pick phrases totally out of context to misrepresent.
I'm betting your Mom means those type of liars when she suggests you study evolution.
“Actually, if you study evolution,”
Like, say, a biologist?
“ you night find special clues that contradict the idea!!(My mom told me that.)”
Or I might not.
Could you specify any anti-evolution facts found during the study of evolution? It seems unlikely that a formal study of the theory discredits the theory, huh?
Then again, now that I think about it, Hovind discredits Creationism all the fucking time. Never mind.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
