The creationists keep using the same basic arguments, but they have been debunked thoroughly many times over. They sound like reasonable arguments on paper, but really they have no substance.



Has pretty thoroughly debunked every argument creationists have ever made, if you're looking for an item by item argument.

If you're looking for a good read, I second the others in recommending Stephan Jay Gould. Gould wrote essays for the journal Natural History and many are collected in some very good books. Gould, you may remember, testified in front of the SC to remove creationism from schools, successfully. Many of the essays deal with how phony and fraudulent the creationist movement is. And there's a bunch of other cool essays that entertwine on many subjects. E.A. Poe's plagiarism, baseball, racism and The Bell Curve, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, snails, etc.
