Re: No need to address that...
We don't have a definitive explanation for the origin of life. That's just the state of knowledge at the present. The truth or otherwise of evolution doesn't depend on knowing the answer to that question. It would work whatever the origin of life.

Re: The same is true with respect to Creation Science
Are you limiting creation then to the initial act of creation? If you do that, you're not disagreeing with evolutionary theory per se. If you're not, then your comparison is not valid.
My view is that we're still not equivalent. In practice I believe science assumes that there is no God - or to be more specific, science assumes that a God plays no role in the explanation of the Universe. Science could change that view if there were evidence for a God (who would then become a scientific concept).

Re: I am simply refering to "What is Creation Science?" at this point
What a great post. I feel just the same.
