Isaak, Mark. Five Major Misconceptions About Evolution

http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/faq-misconceptions.html

“A large part of the reason why Creationist arguments against evolution can sound so persuasive is because they don't address evolution, but rather argue against a set of misunderstandings that people are right to consider ludicrous.”
