Of course you can poke holes in evolution because there's always going to be holes in any theory but it doesn't prove that creationism is correct. If you want to believe the Bible that's cool but just don't try to shove it on everyone else. Also, stop trying to make us all look like MeDeFe. We could always come back and say all Christians are like Jimmy Swaggart but I'm sure you wouldn't appreciate that now, would you! A vast majority of people who are atheist do not demand proof that 1 + 1 = 2, we accept that as common sense. We're not all morons. Of course there are weirdos in every group of people.
If you've got some form of proof then by all means share it. Do you believe there's a young earth or not?
But if you had been taught that 1 + 1 = 3 all your life, you would believe it. Humans believe what they hear instead of what they themselves have come to figure out. Is there physical proof that God exists? In my opinion yes, in yours, probably not. Most likely this is because you have been taught that God doesn't exist, have you actually read the Bible and other religious works? I won't lie, I haven't read Darwin's book, but I know enough about it from school to see there are numerous flaws, humans make mistakes, the major ones being not realizing when someone else has made one.
If your friend came up and told you that your father was a cold blooded killer. Would you believe him? Probably not, but do you actually have proof that he isn't? No, from what you know of your father, you make the conclusion that he is not a killer. But if you believe your friend, then you might tell someone else, who will tell someone else and so on and so forth until word reaches the police, by that time the jury might have believed the rumor and your father might receive the death penalty. Now somone has died, because you didn't realize his mistake.
I believe the same is true of evolution, someone many years ago could've made a mistake somewhere and now everyone believes he didn't and for that reason the rumor has spread and everyone believes it is true.
The problem with people who try and pretend like they're aren't absolutes is that it's a self-defeating argument. It should be plain to anyone with an average intelligence. I'm not trying to make the case that evolution is false or that creationism is false. I don't know. But to say that they're aren't absolutes is just silly. Anyone who tries to argue against that is just being stubborn - absolutely
