Evobabble

From RationalWiki

Jump to: navigation, search

Evobabble is a self-degrading term often used by creationists, especially on Conservapedia,[1] to refer to scientific language and terms that they don't understand. This includes any discussion of transitional fossils, rock strata, and radiometric dating methods. This is most likely because very few creationists have any post-homeschooling education (not counting Diploma Mills)[2] Unfortunately, most creationists do not understand that the term "evobabble" epitomizes their ignorance.

[edit] Footnotes

  1. Conservative uses the term to refer to anything he doesn't understand. Examples of his legendary sense of humor on the linked page are illustrative.
  2. Yes, Kent Hovind, I'm talking to you.
