I found this website on creation science: http://www.icr.org/
Please investigate it and tell me what you think.

I just glanced over it, but it seems somewhat dubious to me.

Ah me! although I can admit the person is very good at creative writing, its just a bit insaine. I wached a show back in the day called InSearch Of hosted by Lenard Nimoy where htey looked for the Ark in the very places they mention on the site, and at the end of the show were about 75% certain they found it. But this guys like um no it cant be PERIOD! Sorry man, beleifs aside, Id be more inclned to beleive the archiologists on the In Seach OF dig then this guy. They went on the hunt themselves to prove if it existed or not. I cant find anything that states he has really been anywhere to dig up anything. IMO the whole site is bogus.

Creation Science is an oxymoron.
The ICR does "research" like the National Enquirer does "journalism". They find controversies within the real scientific community and say, "Ah ha! There is disagreement! That means they don't know, so clearly we are right!"
What a joke.

From the few articles I read, it is not scientific.
The extent of their arguments are a logical fallacy called Argument ad Ignorantium: I don't know how it could happen, so god must have done it.
The articles went far out of their way to try to prove weaknesses in evolution, but did NOTHING to support their claim of an intelligent designer.
As always, christians can't be scientists.

I have investigated it. It is one of the more prominent of the infamous 'Liars For Jesus' (LFJ) web sites that have proliferated on the internet. The most visible denizens of this web site are Henry Morris and Duane Gish... famous 'Young Earth Creationists'. Their outrageous claims are even rejected by other creationists, at other LFJ web site.
These guys belong in a loony bin.

I'm familiar with the ICR. These guys don't do any actual "research". They do not form hypothesis, test them for validity, or search for evidence. They do not write science papers on their "research" and submit them for peer review. They only thing they do is stand around and try to come up with persuasive-sounding soundbites to throw against real scientists.
Right up there with AiG and Kent Hovind.

Silly Nuttos - Science is for testing hypothesis and sometimes being proven wrong - not creating evidence as you see fit.
