Re: science
Evolutionists assumption is that there is no God, everything can be explained using a materialistic explanation, mainly that: given enough time and chance, improbabilities become probable.
I'm sorry but that is simply FALSE, another example of the Christian Cult of Ignorance.
The people promoting the indoctrination of the Christian Cut of Ignorance keep repeating this falsehood in the vain hope that it will not be challenged and refuted, but sorry folk, that statement is simply nonsense.
To say "Evolutionists assumption is that there is no God,..." is at best a sign of ignorance until the person is told otherwise. When it is repeated by any who claim to be educated, it becomes a lie.
Since you are new here I will assume that it is simply ignorance on your part and try to educate you.
In the words of the Clergy Letter Project, an open letter signed by over 10,000 US Christian Clergy:
We believe that the theory of evolution is a foundational scientific truth, one that has stood up to rigorous scrutiny and upon which much of human knowledge and achievement rests. To reject this truth or to treat it as “one theory among others” is to deliberately embrace scientific ignorance and transmit such ignorance to our children.
Evolution is NOT anti-religion, anti-God or anti-Christian.

Worship the Bible?
the important thing here is that I do not believe creationism is a science. Science can "change" the word of God can't. If you choose to stand firm on ideas that won't even be the same next generation go ahead. But stop attacking creationists for believing in "constant" and not the "variable." lol
More nonsense from the Christian Cult of Ignorance.
If you consider the Bible the literal Word of God, then you must explain why there is NO one Bible. I am, of course, not speaking of translations, but rather of the Canon itself.
The Bible is absolutely a human creation. It is an arbitrary selection of various writing from many authors, written over a period of many centuries. Which writings are chosen to be included in "The Bible" varies greatly from the smallest Canon that contains only 5 books, to Canons containing over 80 books.
We can though, observe the actual WORD of GOD. It is the universe we live in. Our job is to try to understand what has been written, and just as with interpretations of literature like the various Bibles, our understanding of the Word of GOD will increase as we learn more, gain more knowledge.
You are correct in part. Creationism is not science, and Biblical Creationism, YEC and the current ID proposals are not just not science, they are worse theology.
In the words of the Clergy Letter Project:

Biblical Creationism is nothing more than willfully and deliberately embracing ignorance.
