I found a long article that gives a number of arguments against creationism. One part in particular was amusing:

For numerous communicable diseases, the only known “reservoir” is man. That is, the germs or viruses which cause these diseases can survive only in living human bodies or well-equipped laboratories. Well-known examples include measles, pneumococcal pneumonia, leprosy, typhus, typhoid fever, small pox, poliomyelitis, syphilis and gonorrhea. Was it Adam or Eve who was created with gonorrhea? How about syphilis? The scientific creationists insist on a completed creation, where the creator worked but six days and has been resting ever since. Thus, between them, Adam and Eve had to have been created with every one of these diseases. Later, somebody must have carried them onto Noah's Ark.

I think Ms. Sarah hit the nail on the head.

... Wasn't Ham, Noah's son, "cursed" with having messed up kids because he (might have) raped his naked drunken father?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ham_(son_of_Noah)

Apparently the curse was specific on Ham's fourth son, Canaan. And current thought is that maybe instead of molesting Noah (pretty big stretch from seeing old dude passed out naked and telling his brothers about it) Ham was maybe messing about with Noah's wife. Pretty messed up, anyhoo.
