No they won't. Not because it isn't true. It may or may not be true, because science is just as Dogmatic as the other religions out there, and won't accept anything that doesn't fit with the accepted dogma.

Never forget Piltdown man. A fraud that was accepted by the scientific community because it fit with accepted dogma, while the actual and true fossils were rejected, because they didn't.

Just because the scientific community accepts or rejects something doesn't make it true or false, it just means its accepted or rejected by scientists. What is today's fact, may be tomorrows garbage.

Piltdown was yesterdays fact, meanwhile the asteroid extermination of the dinosaurs was considered yesterdays garbage science, is now gaining acceptance, and is still not accepted by some.

So, no, no-one will ever win a Nobel prize for a creation/intelligent design theory. Not because it might be wrong, but because the priests of the new inquisition, CSICOP, would refuse to accept it.

Nope...most of the prizes are a bit fixed anyway. The guy who invented the MRI process was a Creationist and it seems that he was skipped over for a Nobel Prize for Medicine whereas two other scientists that slightly tweaked what he had done won the Nobel prize.

Yes someone will, and that will be God when the ones who do not beieve in Him comes to know Him if they ever do. God however does not need an award. I will prove my case, read this:

A scientist died and went and stood before God and they were having a discussion about the wonders of Creation. The scientist spoke up and said, " I can do anything you can do in a Laboratory" I can take DNA and clone a man,and plant life if I choose in a Test Tube. God spoke and said "if you can do all that so well let's see if you can create a man like I did from clay" The scientist said "no problem" and reached down and was going to scoop up some clay from the ground, but God SAID, "hold on, you have to get your own clay" (for those who did not understand, God created the clay also)

Gloat all you like. The whole thing doesn't mean much to me really. God could have caused the Big Bang. The Bible doesn't say HOW He created everything. I think Science meshes with Scripture on a level we can't even comprehend. I honestly don't see the competing theories as mutually exclusive.

It's funny how people will try to parade the failures of science, and the frauds committed in its name, to besmirch it. This kind of criticism is like shooting yourself in the foot to dramatize the results of carelessness.

Of course there have been frauds in science! But the point is they are exposed, 99% of the time by... are you ready? ....scientists! Let me know who/how we deal with the fraud in "intelligent design."

Gloat on, what a wonderful question that MOST of us know the answer to, big smile.

No because there is no evidence to back up creationism or intelligent design
