This is from an off-site archive, one that addresses the question of creationism and evolution from a scientific perspective. Over the years, a large
database of claims, an original citation, a discussion (almost allways a refutation or clarification) and then source citations of the discussion, as
built up there. They are short answers, often with links to large detailed essays and original source material. Its pretty handy, for anyone who
wants to understand whats going on. A discussion can get pretty bogged down in irrelevancies if people are just asking whats already been asked, and
can really get somewhere if all the participants are aware of the current standings. So here's the:
Index To Creationist Claims
Here's the first level Contents, just to give you an idea of what the structure is:
- Philosophy and Theology
- Biology
- Paleontology
- Geology
- Astronomy and Cosmology
- Physics and Mathematics
- Miscellaneous Anti-Evolution
- Biblical Creationism
- Intelligent Design
- Other Creationism
Interstingly, there is a 'wiki-rebuttal', a creationist wikki that is being assembled to rebute the statements there. That might prove a good
resource too.
Creationist Rebuttal Wikki

There's also, apparently, going to be a book form for the index, and related materials, available
here, authored primarly by the prolific and educated Mark Issak!
The Counter-Creationism Handbook
That should prove useful!
