Ben Goldacre's rule and Ardent Creationist Finds Fossil

Ben Acre (see also Bad Science) has propounded a simple law of nature:

“You cannot reason people out of a position that they did not reason themselves into.”*


To whit:  Ardent Creationist Finds Fossilized Fish, Still Isn't Convinced Evolution Is Real


I particularly like the quote to refute science: "We all have the same evidence...and it’s just a matter of how you interpret it."


Yeah.

 *I don't think this quote is uniquely his, but he seems to do good work.
