Claim

Evolutionism has failed to prove useful, having produced no new advancements in scientific knowledge or technology [and] no advancements in medicine.

Responses

1. In light of the many scientific journals on evolutionary theory, and the very common usage of evolutionary principles in disease control (viral and bacterial evolution, disease tracking), genetic diagnostics (determing effects of genes by looking at the evolution of that gene), drug design (artificial selection to evolve new pharamceuticals), agriculture (artificial selection of crops and livestock), ecology and conservation biology (predicting the effects of foreign species on the evolution of an ecosystem), industrial chemical production (evolving novel enzymes) and information technology (evolutionary computation - the application of evolutionary principles to evolve computer programs)^[1], this claim is assuredly nothing more than a blatant lie.
2. Neither Creationists nor Intelligent Design proponents have been willing to demonstrate what sort of practical use Creationism or Intelligent Design have.
