Is it true that Creationists think of science as a myth?

Entrenched, willful ignorance is scary, isn't it? Imagine if a world leader actually thought this way... oh wait, some do. Boy, are we in trouble.

NO that is not true.
At least not in my case. Some people just are not interested in Science so they don't go into that realm to have an intelligent argument about it they just say "God created the world, end of subject" Others delve into science and weigh out the facts. Many of them happen to be Creationists when it's all over because they felt they found more facts and evidence in favor of the Creation story.

Science thinks of God as a myth. Being a Christian I think science only proves there is a God. Take DNA for example, or the universe, how everything works together, that took intelligence not an accident. It is all a matter of perspective, and you can not see what you are unwilling to see.

I don't consider fossils or DNA as myths, but I consider evolution along with creation to be a theory. I just chose to believe in creation rather than evolution. If a substantial amount of evidence is revealed that points to evolution, and can't be explained with the creationists view, then I may change my mind. However, if something is discovered or revealed to point toward creation, I imagine people would change their mind too.

No we do not think of science being myth, We just look at the same evidence and come to a different conclusion. We look at the fossils and see evidence of a worldwide flood and we look at the complexity of DNA and come to the conclusion that we were created complete instead of evolving.

Yes it is all a myth to the nut jobs until they need a cure for a disease that only science can provide.
Then there are the total nut jobs who just go to a faith healer and die anyway.

Science is not a myth, but when you start out with the assumption that God does not exist, you can't expect to get a lot of things right. Scientists should not be so closed minded as to rule out all possibility of psychic or spiritual interaction in the world. Science should be looking for truth not being used to prove the bias of the scientists.

Uh, no, that's not true.
Why would fossils or DNA be myths? Why would science be a myth?

Absolutely not. In fact, the deeper you dig into science, the more you come to realize that it supports creationism, rather than refutes it.
