or do you just think of a guy in a lab coat with a test tube and some green liquid and a bunch of formulas?
Let me help you: Science- Understanding the world around us.
It is that simple...you either try to understand the world using logic , or you live through mythology. The choice is yours.

Christians believe that a creator is essential. Scientists believe that the idea of a "creator" is pure mythology, and that the complexity arose through natural processes like evolution. Who is right?
You can actually answer this question yourself with a little logic.
1.The complexity of life and the universe did arise completely spontaneously and without any intelligence. Nature created all the complexity we see today.
2.An intelligent creator created all of the complexity that we see today because complexity requires intelligence to create it.
The advantage of the first option is that it is self-contained. The complexity arose spontaneously. No other explanation is required.
The problem with the second option is that it immediately creates an impossibility. If complexity cannot arise without intelligence, then we immediately must ask, "Who created the intelligent creator?" The creator could not spring into existence if complexity requires intelligence. Therefore, God is impossible.
In other words, by applying logic, we can prove that God is imaginary.

The effort to explain natural phenomenoa by natural means. If you let the supernatural in, all bets are off. Literally anything can happen if magic becomes an acceptable explanation for anything.

Science is a process of experimentation and observation, in
order to come to logical conclusions. Yet scientists don't
believe their own test results if they go against their
preconcieved ways of thinking. Therefore, science is just
another belief system.

I sat through a few science classes in school. I wasn't impressed, so I choose Faith. It tells me everything I need to know.

That's not the "scientific method".It's something that can be Hypothesised,then Theorized,then proven by repeat performance...period.
So much for most of the "Theories" evolution, big bang, being born gay, etc etc.

Nope; all the answers they need are to be got by various random permutations of the letters of the bible.

Doesn't REAL science allow for ALL possibilities, including God?
