Creationist Responds to Attack from Evolutionist
There are many times when atheists and other evolutionists react with not only dismissal of creation evidence, but also by attacking creationists. Misrepresentation from those owlhoots is ubiquitous, which makes them look more foolish because they refuse to examine the evidence. Someone picked the wrong scholar to mock.
As a subscriber to CMI's Creation magazine, I like the very short "Focus" articles near the beginning. The item under discussion appears on page ten of Vol. 42(2):11, 2020; I have it next to me. From the wording of the critic, I can easily imagine a sneer on his face as he ridiculed creationists and used a passel of ad hominem insults against the author and biblical creationists.
He also appealed to the authority of the book he said he was reading at the time. (As an ardent evolutionist, who objects to the word evolutionist but is willing to use the word creationist, it is puzzling that he subscribes to a biblical creationist periodical.) Since he knew who wrote the short article, he could have checked out other paleoanthropology articles on the site by that author and others. The evidence supports recent creation, not scum-to-scoffer evolutionism, and we should not feel bullied into self-abasement by washing the feet of mouthy anti-creationists because evolution.
His criticism is reproduced, receives a lengthy clarification, and then a more detailed examination of the letter. To see the entire shoot-out, click on "Bipedal apes, australopithecines and human evolution".
