Criticize evolution for being "non-testable, and non-repeatable" (which it is), when the exact same claim could be made against the Genesis 1 or 2 account of creation?

Evolution can be observed, in real time. Evolution is a fact.
Do a search on Silkworm evolution research.

Many Christians believe that evolution MUST conflict with creation, and therefore will not give it consideration, for to do so would be questioning the Bible.
There are those of, like myself that do not see the need for conflict between creation and evolution. Those of us who believe this are in the minority but there is a term for it. It is called theistic evolution and if you wish to know more about it a good place to start is theistic-evolution.com

At best then your insightful criticism ultimately reduces both scenarios to a degree of faith with the only difference being that a creation scenorio had an intelligent observer who could legally serve as a witness - God. Whereas an evolutionary scenorio had no intelligent observer, single-celled organisms cannot testify. That makes evolution blind faith and creationism faith with a reason.
To Socraticswine, macro-evolution cannot be observed because it takes millions of years to occur. Micorevolution can be observed, such as finch beaks growing and shrinking. But that is not evidence of one species mutating into another species. That is evidence of mutation within a species. The Darwinists can only arbitrarily affirm extrapolation in spite of the fact that science itself cannot justify such an extrapolation.

The answer lies in your own question, believing in evolution is a religion the same as believing in creation, both have the same status scientifically.

There is no evolution and there has never been any evolution. If there were evidence would be widespread and readily available. to folks that actually believe that twisted theory of evolution------why has there never been found one single shred of evidence? there have been so-called 'findings' that were later proven to be hoaxes. you can't tell me that in all of all the millions of fossilized remains that have been discovered not a single one has shown genuine evidence of evolution------where is the fossilized evidence? the answer is easy you can't find any evidence since the myth of evolution is just that-----a myth and pure bunk Darwin was a loser.if there really was evolution evidence would be quite abundant.

socratic is right... evolution is micro evolution collected over the years... some of these times, silkworms will emerge out of its cocoon without wings at all.

As a Christian, I admit thats a good and valid argument.
