""They [evolutionists] are not stupid people, they are bright, but they are bright enough to know there is no scientific evidence they can give in a minitrial," Mastropaolo said." (Scratching my head. So, he felt confident about putting up the $10,000 because he is counting on the intelligence of the evolutionists not to accept...??? I are cornfuzzled. There is a dissonance here.)

The catch? You have to have $10K to put up first, and you go before a "judge" that's been picked by a science-denying creationist.

wait a sec.....he demands that the scientific community present evidence, while all he has to do is show faith? From the article:

Contest rules state that evidence must be scientific, which means it is "objective, valid, reliable and calibrated".

How is any literal interpretation (THAT word is hardly objective in itself) of the Bible going to be "objective" or especially "valid", proven "reliable" and "calibrated". It seems the good creationist has set up a one-sided minitrial in order to collect $20,000.00 (the other party has to put up $10,000.00 also!)

no it doesn't, Derik DaSilva a negative does not prove a positive. If I don't care to involve myself in a scam, that does not make the scam a reality.

It must be his own piss that keeps the creationist warm in his bubble. ;-)
