Here's an opportunity to see how good you are at refuting evolution scientifically. That means using science, not faith. If you have faith that evolution is false, that's great for you but has nothing to do with science.

HOW TO PLAY

Just write a series of statements showing either inadequacy in the basic tenets of evolution, or contradictory evidence.

It is not necessary to absolutely disprove evolution, just give us something to rock conventional science.

Your statements will be evaluated and assigned points. 10 points wins.

PROCEDURE

1. To enter the game, leave a post declaring your intention to play. You may start making statements in that post if you like.

2. You will then have 60 days to make as many posts as you like with statements for the game. If you do not make 10 points in those 60 days you will have to start over.

3. All posts in the game should have ANTI-EVOLUTION GAME as the subject line and contain only statements relevant to the game. Anything else will not be counted.

WINNING

I'm self (un)employed so i can't give away cadillacs or trips to Hawaii. But if you can get 10 points your name will go on a public list of succesful challengers of evolution, a list that is currently empty. And i will send a $10 donation to the organization of your choice.

Appeal to your own ignorance "I don't see how else..."
is a description of your personal inadequacy, not that
