Is the scientific method really mutually exclusive of Creationists method?

Answer 1

Science and Creationists can complement one another, as many scientist's and religions are finding out. The big bang theory is now being studied due to the opening of Genesis ."In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said"Let there be light; and there was light." A lot of scientist's are now relating Let There Be Light, to the big bang theory. Any answer science can give us, only offers alternative ideas. Scientist's use the term Theory for a very good reason, it is only theory, they have not proven it to be absolute truth, You can find God in all of science. Einstein referred to God as The Ancient One, maybe he was right.

Answer 2

To me, those who think creationism and science are mutually exclusive are missing the point. The account of creation found in Genesis is simply a different way of telling the same story; it's just an account written for an unscientific people, which is what people were (and some still are) when it was written. I personally have no difficulty with the idea of the existence of a God who used what we call science to create; I think those who do simply lack imagination.

Answer 3

Creationism is simply false.

This means that the creationist method is to use deception, duplicity and guile to distort facts to fit a desired outcome. Not only is this directly against a scientific approach, in court it would be considered illegal.

If the point they were trying to establish were not so tied up in a widely supported religion they would be regarded as at best misguided and at worst criminal.

Answer 4

The Doctrine of Creation is only a Philosophy--Emperical--.Whereas Scientific method is a "method"--Rational
