From the Scientific American website:

Embarrassingly, in the 21st century, in the most scientifically advanced nation the world has ever known, creationists can still persuade politicians, judges and ordinary citizens that evolution is a flawed, poorly supported fantasy.— John Rennie

A good, fairly concise article covering refutations to the standard Creationist ‘arguments’ – all the more relevant with lovely, gun toting, evangelical Christian Sarah Palin running for VP.
