Year of the tiger-lilly

I don’t know if any of you have followed the Creationist vs Evolutionists debate out on YouTube, but if there’s one person who I’m rooting for it’s Thunderf00t. He and several other advocates of science have been battling PCS (Poster-boy for Creationist Stupidity a.k.a. VenomfangX) and other supporters of Creationism/ Intelligent Design making comprehensible and factual videos exposing the fallacies and illogical statements put forward by the religious on YouTube.

Do I portend to know whether or not there is a god? No, however, I do not deign to profess I know ‘The Truth’ without any evidence to corroborate my claims and/or ignoring all evidence to the contrary. A fine example of this is the debate between Thunderf00t and Ray Comfort (a.k.a. The Banana Man):

• R.C.:  ”So, what was in the beginning?” 
• T:  “This what we would call in scientific terms an unknown.”
• R.C.:  “You don’t know?
• T:  “It’s unknown. I mean… there are things that we know and things that we don’t know.”
• R.C.:  “Well, I’m going to stop you there, because I know what was in the beginning. You don’t know, I know what was in the beginning. In the beginning god created the heavens and the Earth.
