I claim the events in the Iliad actually happened


There, now there is someone claiming that. Proceed

You have a poor reputation as an impartial researcher.
You present facts without providing any sources or your
method for evaluating such articles.

This ruins your reputation.

It's impossible for Creationists to predict the creationist model
not knowing the conditions before and during.

You must know the conditions previous, and during an event
to make predictions.
I am not sure I understand what you are saying. There are plenty of "creation models." As with any scientific model, a creation model must make predictions. I would suggest you take a look at the second article I linked to, which directly describes this concept in relation to a creation model. We need not know the exact conditions at the origin of the universe to make predictions.

That is only one factor. It really depends on the reputation of the person
making the determination. Some people have a clear agenda when evaluating.
My questions were rhetorical

I fail to agree with your point. You have a poor reputation as a scientific researcher.
Your unsupported claim for analysis of facts is wanting.

"I am Blue"
Now do you believe I am blue?
Of course not. I made an unsupported statement.

Now what do you think? Any better?

In the case of creationism however, your post doesn't apply.

Science has nothing to investigate -- literally nothing.

That's the "ex nihilo" part of creatio ex nihilo.

But it can, and does, investigate what happened from one split second after the creation event onwards.

Thank you for demonstrating the degree to which you don't understand the purpose of that post.

Anyone asking why there is no evidence for creation either doesn't understand creationism, doesn't understand evidence, or both.

We understand it just fine. There is no evidence for creationism because it isn't true.

Then you don't understand what things sound like.
Let me quote a great man:

Just don't call what you believe "science" and what I believe "religion."

What was the wine's 14C/12C content, and why did it have that ratio?

Becasue it was a mature creation, ready for it's intended purpose.
As God always does.

[QUOTE="SkyWriting, post: 71717606, member: 255843"]And you for keeping the secret purpose in your imagination.[/QUOTE]

You said: "A myth is simply a fact you choose to not believe."

Equivalently: If I choose to believe something which isn't a fact, it is not a myth. (If A implies B, then not-B implies not-A)

In particular, TBDude is claiming to believe the events in the Iliad really happened.

Which, by your definition, means that the Iliad is not a myth.

Analogies to human activity, bible verses, 'problems' with evolution - none of these, not one of them, is evidence FOR creation or ID.
You are being very disingenuous.
Your OP is quite provocatively untrue.

As for evidence that creation by God is true, we are surrounded by it.
Open your eyes and your mind to the truth of creation.
Not only the marvels of this planet and its life but also a wonderful universe of ever
revealing complexities.
I do not need to defend creation for it is a given truth, unfortunately not seen nor believed by
those that are blind.

No actually it is evolutionists who have a hard time defending their myths and fairytales that
all this came from nothing because it: could? wanted to? by chance?
The day evolutionists can show me some real tangible evidence that can prove the myth of
the evolution of life, species and myself, I will show you little green men on Mars.
