I had a creationist professor who had a whole bunch of bullshit specifically intended to “debunk” aging using Polonium half-lives, etc…
You’ll never “disprove” it for them, because they don’t want it disproven. They’ll just find the relevant page on Answers in Genesis/Ken Ham’s website written by someone with a Ph.D. from Pensacola Christian College and consider it done. They’re not in it to actually find the truth. It’s not a good-faith discussion/debate.
I had a “Creationism vs evolution” class because I did one semester at a religious college before realizing I wasn’t religious. It was about what’d you’d expect, and no, the credit didn’t transfer to a real college

In what backwoods podunk shithole did you have a creationist “professor?” What were they even ostensibly teaching?

I’ve seen anecdotal stories of geologists who claimed they were creationists. The brain is an amazing thing.
Fortunately when they go find some page in AiG, you can just go point at the corresponding entry here: https://www.talkorigins.org/indexcc/list.html
Been a while since I’ve seen that resource. Old webpages are refreshing sometimes.

Neat. I’ve ran across a few things that tie to the Small Web, but this is even more eclectic.
