Answer 2

Instead, answer this:

What science is there in evolution?

Don't laugh, think. I think Darwin was onto something. What was crazy was when people decided that over billions and billions of years, with accidental deformities that are actually improvements along the way, a slug can become a human.




Okay, I'll try. I'm no scientist, but let me try anyway.

Webster defines science as:

the state or fact of knowledge; knowledge



systematized knowledge derived from observation, study, and experimentation carried on in order to determine the nature or principles of what is being studied

So basically, it's comprehension by observation, right? If all it takes for Creationism to be scientific is to be intelligently comprehended through direct observation, then I think it's very possible that it can be very scientific. I see an amazing world around me, and I think that it's too amazing to not be intelligently designed. That's what I call science... and Webster too. What's your definition?

Just think about it for a minute. As amazing as all this is (by all this I mean everything in nature) do you really think it takes less faith to believe in evolution?

I think it can go a lot farther than that, but I am tired and would like to get some sleep.

Answer 3

Well, there is some science in creationism, contrary to the guy that just said there isn't. The Flood is distinctly stated in the bible but not in any other document. It is said that an underground body of water burst and split apart the earth's surface and created the techtonic plates. You should check it out in the bible and maybe talking to a Pastor about it. I think this is scientific evidence, and i hope it satisfies you. But you always have to remember that it takes faith to believe in either creationism or evolutionism. There is evidence on the earth of creationism, and there hasn't been any that I have come across that has disproved it. It all comes down to what you want to put your faith in. You could believe in evolution but what does that accomplish. As for me I chose a "theory" with a loving God that has forgiven me for my sins and one who has given me eternal life.

Answer 4

And what religion is there in evolution?

Creationism has nothing to do with science. It is the weak attempt by some insecure religious people to try to defend their beliefs because they mistakenly think that secular science is on the attack. This is a stereotype based on a limited few atheists who DO attack religion, just like a minority of religious people attack atheism. Both extremes are in the wrong. Ultimately it is a silly argument, either way. Religion and science are completely separate things. The only thing that is incompatible between the two are the idiot people on either side who try to understand something they are incapable or unwilling to learn about. It's like trying to use science to decide what the "best" movie ever was, or applying religious theory to your favorite sandwich. I'll never understand the fanatics on either side of this debate. What a waste of breath.

Answer 5

People like Sarfati and Ken Ham claim to be scientists, but if you read their essays you will discover that they know just much about science as Oprah Winfrey knows about programming in Java.

Answer 6

Lots and lots of it... Actually, Creationism is all about scientific laws. Honestly, I cannot give you a very detailed answer, but if you are really interested in getting the correct one, check with the experts - The Institute for Creation Science.
GBU!!

Answer 7

Besides none?

Here's an article I wrote about Creationism's failure to address even the most simple precepts in science:

Answer 8

Just as much as there is in the theory of evolution.

Those answering that there in no science in Creationism are narrow-minded and naive. I am a research scientist, a large number of my colleagues being agnostic, and I can whole-heartedly confirm that one can perform statistical analyses, among other scientific methodologies, to test Creationism and information contained within the Bible. In fact, there are a number of analyses that have been performed that are thousands-fold stronger, statistically-speaking, than some of the most well-accepted physical phenomena that we don't question without a doubt.

Do a bit of research and analysis before making such irrevocable statements!

Answer 9

We have all the same evidence as you. And unlike your theory ALL the evidence fits in perfectly with creation...

Tell me what science is there in evolution? Hoaxes, Lies, Wishful Thinking, False Assumptions, Time? Is that real science?

Answer 10

There is no scientific basis for creationism. The entire field of study is devoted to discrediting the theory of evolution. It has never come up with any theory of its own (no scientific theory, that is; it has come up with religious theories); nor has it run any experiments to test their hypotheses.
