Re: Competing Models
So how do you decide between competing models as to which one most accurately describes or reflects reality?
E.g. Biblical Genesis Vs Big Bang or Adam and Eve Vs evolution.
Simple: There is evidence for one, and no evidence for the other.
Off topic here, but how about starting a thread Adam and Eve Vs evolution?

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