Talking Antibiotic Effectiveness - a Critical Review

Once again, I was really bored, so I made another creationist webpage, this time taking jabs at the Institute for Creation Research.

Check this out and tell me what you think.

WinAce, I love your stuff, but man you've got to much time on your hands. Are you independently wealthy or do you never sleep? Well, whatever, keep up the good work!

There are other old theories that could be treated in similar fashion.

Like the theory that the planets move because they are pushed by angels, which was common in the Middle Ages. One would compare that to the godless, materialistic, mechanistic theories of Newton and Einstein, with all their forbidding mathematics and uncommonsensical concepts. Something like:

"Invisible forces that are everywhere? I marvel at how anyone can believe in gravity and continue to be an atheist. Both gravity and God are equally invisible."

"Students of materialistic celestial mechanics still have not figured out why the Solar System has been stable for all its 4.5 billion years. The angel theory explains this stability MUCH better -- the angels have been faithfully keeping the planets in their orbits for all that time."

I love that!

An other area to discuss from a creationist perspective might be magnetism! This was long believed to be occult - spirits move the compass or pick up iron filings.

I think christons should also definitely be developed into a theory.
