"This whole notion of evolution vs creationism tradition in biology boggles my mind and lowers my already low opinion of biology in general even further. If two prominent schools cannot even agree on the basic ideas, those ideas are not worth agreeing on."
I don't agree with the parent of your post, but I don't think your example responsive. He is using the struggle between A and B to argue that both are worthless. Your rephrasing relies on the fact that B is already known to be worthless. In short, the lack of parallelism means your criticism of the structure of his argument is misplaced.
Jack is probably right on the merits.
