Index to Creationist Claims

La página web Talk.Origins Archive titulada Index to Creationist Claims, consiste en una lista de supuestas refutaciones a los argumentos creacionistas contra el evolucionismo. Gran parte de la lista se publicó posteriormente en 2005 como el The Counter-Creationism Handbook.

Algunas de estas afirmaciones son utilizadas regularmente por los creacionistas, algunas son poco frecuentes y otras no se utilizan en absoluto. No todas las objeciones planteadas por la Talk.Origins son incorrectas, pero es importante que los creacionistas respondan a esta lista anti-creacionista.

Esta página contiene vínculos a las respuestas de los creacionistas a cada una de las "refutaciones" que se encuentran en el sitio web Talk.Origin.

NOTA: Cuando se crea una página de este archivo, por favor, siga la guía en CreationWiki:Las respuestas a la Talk.Origins.
