Creationists now losing their minds because Neil deGrasse Tyson explained electricity

[okaawhatever]

How on earth could creationists be upset with electricity? Well, Tyson had the audacity to mention that Faraday’s discoveries helped us explain how birds navigate the globe using the earth’s electromagnetic waves, and that their brains are evolutionarily wired for such a task.
Writing for Answers in Genesis, the young earth creationist’s organization, Elizabeth Mitchell writes:

“Evolutionists assume our existence and the existence of birds must have an evolutionary explanation. Yet molecules-to-man evolution—depending as it does on both the spontaneous emergence of life from non-living elements and the evolution of organisms into new, more complex ones—demands that we believe things that violate the laws of nature (e.g., law of biogenesis).”

One can assume these words are barely Mitchell’s, as they puppet the same narrative week after week. First they claim scientists “assume” these evolved traits, ignoring the evidence behind the claim, and then quickly move on to false naturalistic claims such as broken laws of nature.

What Tyson is saying in this episode is far from controversial; in fact, you would find it very challenging to locate scientists who would want to debate Tyson’s bird claim because it is so well understood.

10. I guess they don't get electric bills

Or if they do, they throw them out. Why must we pay for something that is everywhere.

3. Electricity is what happens when I am on the treadmill and I touch the heart rate pads.

Shocks the Hell out of me.

Damn You Ben Franklin!

6. Since when did believers in the Invisible Sky Being care about natural laws?

Seems they are so desperate, that they forget that ALL of their beliefs are based on FAITH. Life from non-life happened at least once in the history of the Earth.

9. Apparently God violated said law ...

since there's no explanation for God's existence.
