Steve Jones says Give Up
The Guardian Reports that Steve Jones, a University College London professor of evolutionary biology has given up.

"I don't engage with creationists directly," he said, saying that, when he had, they had frequently quoted him out of context or accused him of lying. "If somebody has decided to believe something - whatever the evidence - then there is nothing you can do about it." ... He pointed out that acceptance of Darwin's theory on a global scale was a "minority belief". According to polls, 100 million Americans believe in creationism.


Good for him. He's realized what we did quite a while ago. Creationism is a religious belief. It is irrational. Arguing with irrational people is stupid. Give Up!
