Creationists only reject the idea of macroevolution--changes that take simpler forms and improve to more complex forms. You know what I am refering to. We reject that microevolution extrapolates into macroevolution. Mutatations and selection are a design implicitly present in the DNA code and cannot go beyond that which is already present. Improvement within a kind, yes. But even these so called improvements are really not improvement in the overall system. Too much mutation eventually leads to cancer.
That's okay if you want to stop debating me. I don't really feel like anyone here is interested in honest debate anyway. You all have a herd mentality and you are smug and oh so self-assured--as wrong as I know that you are. I really need to get this computer monkey off-my-back anyway!! Carry on. The choir awaits you.

Because the first and second laws of thermodynamics preclude it.

The evidence confirms the creation model better than the evolution model. Most known facts that confirm the creation model were made long before Darwin, and by creation scientists.
As far as is known, the scientists of the past listed below believed in a literal Genesis unless indicated with an asterisk. The ones who did not are nevertheless included in the list below because of their general belief in the creator God of the Bible and opposition to evolution.

Why is that?
I think I have done a fairly good job at trying to express how it is that creation science is a scientific study of the evidence just as evolution is..I mean, at least to the degree that it is possible, anyway. You seem unnerved by the possibility that creation could have a leg to stand on. Is that because it might then give some credence to Scripture for those of us who have faith in God? I only ask this because most Catholics do not want to accept Scripture as the authority of God. Would this shake things up for you?

And Creation Science does a very good job at proving why it is impossible. It boils down to the universal laws of conservation and decay.

And that is that there are many of you here in this forum who just do not know what creation science really is.

"..he fought his inner self because of what he has observed and concluded"
I just don't think it was in the way you think. Darwin knew that his exptrapolation--his assumptions and "hopeful monsters" would be dead in the water if the evidence couldn't be found to support his ideas. He was convinced that eventually the fossil record would come to prove macroevolution and therefore support his theory. But this means that his theory came first--not based on the evidence, but in spite of no evidence yet, and just on an idea. This is really no different if you want to accuse creationists of starting with an idea first. For biblical creationists, the Bible is their source and foundation and guide. But for Creation Scientists, their study is done apart from the Bible or God--it isn't looking to prove religion, just creation, isn't isn't looking to confirm biblcal stories, just created order.

with reasons and theories from the creation model, confirmed with actual agreed upon universal laws such as the first and second laws of thermodynamics. You can disagree with me, but please don't claim that I didn't state and support my claims.
I am really not up to the monumental task of responding to all these posts and people. I just wanted to show *why* creation science is a science. I think I have given you a pretty good idea of how it works and if you are truly interested, I recommended a very good book called "What is Creation Science?" by Morris/Parker. Thanks for playing, but I really do have to shake this computer monkey off my back and join the real world. Kids getting home from school soon and a hubby who doesn't like it when I spend too much time on the computer like this. Enjoy.

because the consequences of ignoring the truth of God's Word are unthinkable for you, since calling yourself Catholic, I assume you are a believer.

Kelly Member (Idle past 5525 days) Posts: 217 Joined: |
Creation Science itself is a study of the evidence, not of God or the Bible. It has nothing to do with religion or God directly. However, for those who have faith in God, it has consequences. If the Bible is truth, then how we respond to it matters alot.
I also answered this question: "How does creation science not violate the second laws of thermodynamics?" when it was asked by someone else. I am not going to keep answering the same thing everytime someone else wants to ask it. You are either following along or you aren't. Somehow I think you are since you seem to *think* I am avoiding answering as if you know it was asked before. Go back and reread.

I find it comical, actually. This claim that I have failed to make my point or that I am ducking questions is too funny for words considering the amount of posting I have done and continue to do to explain my position. The truth is that you disagree. But that is a far cry from proving me wrong.

AIG can do and say and believe what it wants to. So can I and so can you. This still has nothing to do with what the actual study in creation science is about. It is a study of the evidence, not of God. The fact that creation points to a creator is actually besides the point.

I wondered why you, personally, are so opposed to discovering that life might be created rather than evolved? It was a sidenote to you, personally.
