I'll admit I don't believe in any higher power than the Flying Spaghetti Monster. I don't like to debate weather your God did this or my God did that. But here is a quote from a creationis that is pretty bone-headded if you ask me. From Cosmic Variance here's one of the best creationist quotes ever. It's so good I had to share it:
One of the most basic laws in the universe is the Second Law of Thermodynamics. This states that as time goes by, entropy in an environment will increase. Evolution argues differently against a law that is accepted EVERYWHERE BY EVERYONE. Evolution says that we started out simple, and over time became more complex. That just isn’t possible: UNLESS there is a giant outside source of energy supplying the Earth with huge amounts of energy. If there were such a source, scientists would certainly know about it.
You should be laughing quite hard right now. I know I was. The funny thing is that this person is exactly right about his science. Life on Earth couldn't function without some giant influx of energy. We'd die a cold, lonely death without it (just like the universe will eventually). But we fortunately do have energy coming in, and us scientists do indeed know about it (as does everyone else on the planet).
In case you don't get it, it's the sun.
