Evolution has absolutely no evidence supporting it, unlike Christianity. There are no fossil records, and any that they claim to have, are dated by the rock layers they are found in. The rock layers are dated by the fossils they contain. This is a logical fallicy known by the incredibly geeky and my school as petitio principii, circluar reasoning.

"Evolution has absolutely no evidence supporting it, unlike Christianity. O RLY
There are no fossil records,
Yes there are.
and any that they claim to have, are dated by the rock layers they are found in.
That's how it's done. The fossils themselves are to fragile, so the earth around it is dated.

No it isn't. Go back and take Philosphy 101 again.
There would be millions of years' worth of soil due to the things that are dieing, leaving behind new soil. But, this soil is missing.
Proof?
The sun shrinks everyday and,
It might, but the change is so miniscule that it doesn't matter. And this has to do with evolution how?
if the universe were hundreds of years old,
No it isn't fuckwit. It's billions.
the earth would be a hunk of burnt toast floating around in space.
Which it was for about a billion years or so.
Animals can not evolve from somthing they do not have the genetic code for. A dog can not gain the DNA neccessary for sprouting wings and scales.
Sure it can. But not by itself.
There is such a thing as microevolution, animals chaging to suit the enviroment such as growing more fur or less fur, etc. However, as I said, macroevolution is physically impsossible.
I also think it's impossible... for you to grow a brain. BURN!
Okay, let's give someone else a turn!"

Who says the dog doesn't already have the DNA necessary for growing scales?

Nope, no need, you win the dumbass in a nutshell award with that fine collection of mangy strawmen you found in someone's closet.

Ever set foot in a natural history museum?

Yeah, except not. A little something called radiometric dating there.

Ever heard of erosion?

1) "Hundreds"? That would rule out your own creation story.
2) You cannot extrapolate backward billions of years based on a few centuries of data and expect to get a result that is even a reasonable estimate, especially when there is no reason to expect that the rate of decrease is constant over long periods of time and in fact several good physical reasons to believe otherwise.

It's called a mutation, dummy. DNA doesn't get copied perfectly. A dog would not get wings and scales from a single mutation, no - but build up enough of them and you damn well might (if there were enough of an advantage to all of the mutations at prior steps that they remained a significant part of the gene pool).

DNA makes no distinction between "big" changes and little ones, except that big ones in a single step are a little more likely to get caught by the DNA repair enzymes we have.
The rock layers are dated by several different radiometric dating methods. The fossils are good indicators of how old a particular rock layer is based on known patterns, but they do nothing to firmly establish its age.
Actually, they both have supporting evidence but not proof.
This is just freakin' absurd. It's as if he were TRYING to use the weakest possible "arguments" the fundie side has, even presenting them in as ludicrous a fashion as possible.and any that they claim to have are dated wrongly? That's the fastest, dumbest contradiction I've seen in a while.
* "If the universe were hundreds of years old"? That just screams contradiction with his own beloved Bible!
This has GOT to be a troll; I cannot believe somebody would pick these specific concepts, and express them in this particular way, to argue against evolution without deliberately trying to come off as incredibly stupid.

if the universe were hundreds of years old
You obviously dont go outside and examine large rock formations, otherwise you would know that there are distinctive layers, and these layers do in fact recount changes of species over long periods of time, you might try walking the niagra escarpment,,,,, AND PAY FUCKING ATTENTION when you go
"The sun shrinks everyday and., if the universe were hundreds of years old, the earth would be a hunk of burnt toast floating around in space. "
if the universe were hundreds of years old, the earth would be a hunk of burnt toast floating around in space. Anything you say can and will be used against you to prove that you are a stupid inbred fuck.
I'm not sure everything you're saying here is correct. I know some of it isn't.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
