I just saw this and had to read the article, I can't watch the video because I'm at work but I think I would find it amusing at most - I doubt Chuck Missler gives a convincing argument for how he has disporoved evolution with a jar of peanut butter.
Let me know what you think about this theory.

I have a better way to disprove of evolution. There are still apes and chimpanzees and monkeys on earth and there is no half ape, half man walking around, also no ape or gorilla has given birth to a half ape, half human child. Evolution is a theory not a fact, and if the Earth was millions of years old, why are we still on Earth. Even with wars and famine, the world would have been extremely overpopulated, over harvested, and the rich would have been going to other worlds. Evolution offers no hope.

Right...that was the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Was that video satirical, or was this another failed creationist attempt at creating and knocking down their own straw man argument against evolution.
I'm going to assume it's satirical, because any scholar worth their mettle should at least understand that evolution deals not with how life began, but with the biological transition from one generation of living beings to another. Heck, knock the complexity down a notch - even if new life did spring up in a jar of peanut butter, you wouldn't see it upon opening the jar.
So, yeah - silly argument, and one that has to be satirical. Otherwise, I've just lost faith in human intelligence.

Sadly, I think it was a serious attempt to disprove evolution.
I'm not sure what he was expecting to see when he opened the jar - maybe he was expecting a bird to fly out?!?
I must admit that I have very little faith in human intelligence any more - there are some very intelligent individuals but, as a whole, we are very lacking.
