The funny thing is, it was actually creationists that convinced me that evolution was true. I grew up in a fundamentalist Baptist church. Used to drive my biology teachers nuts regurgitating the arguments I'd read against evolution. Then toward the end of high school I went to a "Science Class" at my church. It was lead by some church dude that had little to no college education in the sciences. He started reading through some creation arguments from a book and it occurred to me how flimsy they were. So I started debating with him (I was just an argumentative kid and loved to play devil's advocate) and his reasoning just fell apart. I left that class immensely perturbed by my church's attempt to masquerade creationist propaganda as a "science" class. Clearly they didn't know what "science" actually entailed. My biggest takeaway was that most of the people preaching against evolution are not even qualified to have an informed opinion on the subject. By college I had flipped camps.
