In the argument about creation,the debate on both sides,Believers &atheist;the argument will always&eventually come down to the idea that something/someone always existed.So the contention ends up being Believers say God always existed,while atheist will say science has always existed.And this argument wont end until one side or the other admits to being wrong.

Disagree. I beg of you, look into all the Christians that don't believe in a literal translation of Genesis. There are many people who are Christian and accept Evolution.
Honest.
And they're still Christians. Really!

I do not totally agree. Both sides are right. For the believers, God exist and all things are created by him. For the Atheist, science always existed and that is true..God created science from day one. How else would he have made all these things!!?

Oh Maurice, you are too much. Lmao.
What makes you think that Atheists view science as you view your god? No one has ever said "Science as always existed". Do you even understand what science is? Science is the concerted human effort to understand, or to understand better, the history of the natural world and how the natural world works, with observable physical evidence as the basis of that understanding. It is done through observation of natural phenomena, and/or through experimentation that tries to simulate natural processes under controlled conditions.
Before the big bang, there was no time or space. Comprehend? Nothing that we know of existed before the beginning.

There are also those such as myself who believe time is not fundamental.
I believe that fundamentally nature is timeless, and eternal when viewed in that sense, even though when looked at from a different perspective time might be considered to have a beginning.
Much as the natural integers might be considered to be timeless yet still have a beginning "zero".
In my opinion the ultimate reality is not god but mathematics which is the stuff out of which our universe is selected. Who or what selected our universe out of mathematics you ask? We did. Or better yet, our existence did.

Science has not always existed, but the physical laws of the universe have. You don't nead a creator to have have certain natural laws in effect. It's not like someone legislated gravity.

Science has not always existed it developed as we grew in our knowledge of the world around us. It's not like one day all of a sudden "poof" there was science. It was gradual with many instances of trial and error.

I'm neither an atheist nor a creationist, but I've never seen anyone say science always existed.

There is, in some people, an need for absolute certainty. Whether that certainty is of the existence or non-existence of God is rather irrelevant.

Agreed.
Either God always existed, or the universe.

No matter how you try to put creationism on the same level of credibility as cosmology, it's not gonna happen.
Give it up.
