Falldidit is a member of the main trio of arguments used by creationists when it is inappropriate to use goddidit due to conflict with Omnibenevolence. (The other two arguments are flooddidit and satandidit.) Falldidit is the primary rebuttal for any inconvenient medical or biological fact, or even social principle that suggests that God's design is less than perfect. It is rooted in the concept of Original sin, and how "the Fall" instigated a general breakdown of the processes that underpin God's perfect creation.

Usage is as follows:

  1. Scientist: Here's a bad thing we discovered.
  2. Creationist: God's design is perfect, so your evidence is flawed.
  3. Scientist: Here's more evidence.
  4. Creationist: You are misinterpreting the evidence.
  5. Scientist: Here's more evidence, which will show the existence of the bad thing even if you interpret it your way.
  6. Creationist: Falldidit.

Examples

The biblical evils that occurred as a result of Eve's misbehavior are well-documented, however the Bible fails to mention all of the other horrible things that directly resulted.

Disease - All disease is easy to explain using falldidit. First there was no disease, then there was Eve's misbehavior, then disease. Fortunately microbiology was founded by Christians, all beneficial research was done by Christians, and microbiology disproves evolution. Sadly most progress against disease had halted because there are not enough creationist microbiologists: In today’s world, there is a failure of scientists to recognize the clear evidence of the Creator’s hand in the world around us... If a biblical worldview comes back, we might again have more medical discoveries and an increase the quality of life of mankind.[1]

Oncogenes - oncogenes are genes in humans (and other animals) which create cancer. They were discovered in chickens in the 1970s, and their presence in humans was confirmed in the 1980s. As they are essentially "self-destruct" buttons, their purpose seems to not fit in with god's design. Hence falldidit.[2] Oncogenes actually exist to give us (and, presumably, chickens) a physical reminder of the true wages of sin. The jury is still out on why God elected to use AIDS as divine retribution for homosexuality (accidentally targeting many other people in the process) rather than increase cancer rates for gays, but hey, mysterious ways.

Viruses - if god created everything, and the fall turned all of god's good things bad, what did viruses do before the fall? Answer: before the fall they brought happiness and joy, and survived on God's love. Then falldidit,[3] viruses became little killing machines.

Neanderthals - what about Neanderthals? Answer: falldidit[4] - they were just normal people who got attacked by viruses.

Nociception - Nociception refers to the entire set of mechanisms in the body that communicate and monitor pain. It includes the entire afferent nervous system as well a multiple regions of the brain. However before the fall there was no pain. Hence our entire neurology for dealing with pain was a case of falldidit. No-one seems to be able to explain rationally when or how it got installed; presumably, God was in a charitable mood, and massively altered our neurology for the sake of completeness.

Mutations - Because of falldidit, god's perfect creation is turning to shite. Apparently god builds stuff like Ikea, it looks good for a while but falls apart much more quickly than you expect. Since the fall, all sorts of genetic diseases have come about because DNA is like a Lego spaceship being handed to a 3 year old. Tay-Sachs? Falldidit Down Syndrome? Falldidit Fortunately for creationists, evolution is impossible because mutations cannot ever be positive; they can only corrupt and destroy healthy things![5]

Not being able to Bad idea to have sex with your sibling(s) of opposite sex - falldidit. Prior to the Fall you could God commanded you to bang your sister whatever your rib has become[6] (Genesis 2:22) all day long. But then the Fall came, and because of the potential genetic defects, you now have to stop lusting after your sibling (Hm... How did Cain's wife came to existence again?) but banging your rib all day long until Adam died is still ok, for some odd reasons. As Answers in Genesis explains:

It’s considered unwise nowadays (and illegal in many states) to marry someone too closely related to you. Why? Because you greatly increase the odds that bad genes will show up... That would not have been a problem, by the way, shortly after creation (no problem for Cain and his wife, for example).

Why it was still ok totally normal for Lot to have sex with his daughters or for Abraham to marry his (half)sister, long after the Fall, remains a mystery.
