Re: Creation Science
There are logical and epistomological reasons to consider both physical and metaphysical phenomena in arriving at scientific conclusions.
You omit one small problem: if it is metaphysical it is by definition not science, nor is it amenable to the methods used by science.
Certainly scientists aren't including the metaphysical in their work.
So why should we pay any attention to those who want to pass that stuff off as science when clearly it isn't even close?
Creation "science" was a dishonest attempt to steal the good name and reputation of science for something that was clearly religious belief.
So why can't you guys just go play in your own ballpark and stop trying to sneak your way into science?
Edited by Adminnemooseus, : Guess.

Religious belief does not constitute scientific evidence, nor does it convey scientific knowledge.
