"What about the turtles man!"

"God coulda created different turtles"

and so on.
actually they do this a lot. its called gawdidit

the reason why any use any other argument (like something scientific) is because they believe their logic to be legitimate, when in fact its the opposite 100% of the time. this is because they simply misunderstand logic

something i find irritating is how many lay persons who acknowledge evolution consider it far weaker than it is. ToE is actually one of the strongest and most understood theories of similar proportions in science. it is more understood than gravity, as an example.

ToE is so strong that if i had to choose any elaborate non-mathematical scientific theory to prove beyond a reasonable doubt in a courtroom it would be ToE. in fact this has already been done. check out the link to donexodus2 then follow to his six part ken miller series. miller was one of the biologists who had to do exactly that in a courtroom vs ID, and ID got raaaaaaaaaaaaaped
