Unless evolutionists can demonstrate how the ancestors of elephants evolved trunks, and camels their humps, or cetaceans evolved flukes, then their theory becomes limited to the study of small biological changes that creationists do not dispute.


Elephants wiggled their noses and grew trunks.

Camels shook their backs and grew humps.

Whales accidentally swallowed some ugh salty sea-water so they migrated their blow...


Yeah, it's another iteration of Creationists making absolutely fucking stupid demands, and the stakes are their acceptance of science.

As if science gives two hoots whether you want to disbelieve it on stupid grounds or not.
