Anti-Creationist Overgeneralizations
by Cowboy Bob Sorensen During my years on teh interweb , I've seen many things and encountered a passel of things presented as arguments — many are dreadful. Something that really burns my prairie schooner is the way anti-creationists and atheists use prejudical conjecture , and make sweeping generalizations about biblical creation. One example is the controversial Ica stones that supposedly show dinosaurs, which some creationists have used as possible evidence for dinosaurs existing with humans. Although the jury is still out regarding the authenticity of the Ica stones, scoffers boldly assert that they are fake , claim that we commonly use them as evidence for our views, and then use this assertion against biblical creation science as a whole . Although some of the stones are undoubtedly fake, such a sweeping generalization is logically fallacious.
