As for evidence against the creation myth, just look around.
fossils
sedimentary rock formations
human body ( tonsils, flat feet, appendix, etc. )
It is quite evident that the human race was not created out of dust and
a little god spit. We evolved. Anyone can see that, if they are not
blinded by faith. My point is that all ( generalization ) fundamentalists
are blind to the truth. I have heard some outrageous claims made by
fundamentalists when confronted with these facts. Here is a small sample
from an actual conversation:
ME: The existence of fossils points out that the earth is much older
than 6000 years.
fundy: All fossils are planted by evilutionist scientists who are in
league with the devil.
ME: Sedimentary rock formations are proof that the earth is much older
than 6000 years.
fundy: Sedimentary rock formations were planted by old-earth geologists
who are in league with the devil.
ME: Fossil records indicate that there have been many species on this
planet and man is only one of the latest.
fundy: I told you earlier that fossils are planted by scientists.
ME: Do you have any evidence that this is true?
fundy: Well, there was this one guy who was caught back in 1920.
ME: You mean the giant hoax?
fundy: Yeah, that's the one. That proves it.
ME: That man was no scientist, and reputable scientists did expose
the hoax.
fundy: Yeah, because they did not want him invading their turf.
ME: We are in the middle of the Permian Basin. Would you like to
go out and find a fossil? They are all around here. That should
prove that they are a part of nature.
fundy: The scientists drop them from airplanes.
