Every time I see this topic and said discussion, I always have to attempt to prove that evolution has theoretical and practical basis, and that ID does not.

Oh, and of course, the random idiot saying "Both require faith". I just want to *insert stuff you'd see in a random horror movie here, only to his mind* here =|

How should I go about either A: Proving my point right, or B: avoiding these stupid topics in the first place?

Also, should I be bursting in laughter, or crying over the insurmountable idiocy spewing forth from this topic?

So that people don't wonder why you're talking to yourself...yes, I saw the subtitle of the picture, and the content, and it has been deleted.

Dang. I missed it completely. I'm always late to the party...
