The problem, Kent, is that it is more usual to find someone declaiming against evolutionary theory who IS in fact ignorant, and whose love of sweeping generalizations, and various violation of logic, does make them look idiotic. The most common argument in support of creationism is doctrine, which is illogical in and of itself. I don't know anyone who thinks everyone who disagrees is an idiot or ignorant, but I do know a lot of people who use the general rule of "if it walks like a duck...".

Speaking from ignorance, and speaking illogically, is sure to bring you such labels.
