Richard Dawkins on Creationism

Via The Existentialist Cowboy, what is a single sentence that can disprove Creationism?

Richard Dawkins was recently issued a challenge --disprove creationiam in one sentence. I can do that myself. Here it is: If we can see Andromeda --some 2.5 MILLION years distant from earth --then creationism is false!

Andromeda can be seen even with the naked eye; in any case, it takes light from Andromeda some 2.5 MILLION light years to get here and be seen. That we can see these objects with or without telescopes UTTERLY DISPROVES creationism and a 'young Earth' or young universe.
