Most supported premises
Creationism is a scientific doctrine
It is almost unanimously disagreed with by the scientific community and offers no predictions that can be tested that are more accurate than other theories.

Believing aliens is just as illogical as believing god.
The existence of aliens is a testable hypothesis and a phenomenon that can be predicted with the knowledge we have. The existence of god is not testable and requires an assumption leading (in many cases) to contradictions.

Creationism is a scientific doctrine
It can be observed. Domesticated animals are very different from their non-domesticated ancestors. MANY crops now are vastly different to their pre-farming ancestors .

Scientific hypotheses can not be proven
It is impossible to prove a hypothesis correct. It is only possible to prove it is incorrect. A hypothesis gains credibility by giving repeated predictions that are correct within some error range. Every scientific theory we have could still be wrong and replaced by a more accurate theory.

Anti-aging medication should carry the highest priority in medical research
It has a 100% mortality rate. Every human is predisposed to it. Its effects severely lower quality of life for sufferers (and those close to them) often for a long time. It is MASSIVELY expensive to society.

Anti-aging medication should carry the highest priority in medical research
These would both decrease massively if all the effects of aging were combated. Our immune system becoming weaker due to aging is a large reason that cancer is more common in older people. Heart failure is also usually caused by the degeneration of the heart due to aging.

You should be required to add a 'however' premise explaining how a post is fallacious when you report it as such.
This would add clutter to the board and a logical fallacy is best given the premise 'but' to represent it being an objection. I would propose a 'custom' fallacy type that allows a comment that would be visible only when clicked.
