Why can't creation scientists do "science"?

And you were wrong. That was why you got the response that you did.

No one has settled on the evolution side. That is what creationists appear to have done. You had your claim one hundred percent backwards.

I'm pretty sure we're talking about two different types of creationism... I get that feeling when you say that Creationists have settled, because I see these people actively sresearching and trying to solve problems.

...On the other hand, there are scientists who boldly claim: "we don't answer the why's, we only answer the how's"... That's giving up.

Todd Wood is a Christian Young-Earth creationist. He's definitely NOT someone who eschews the existence of god.

Please provide support for your various claims about others. This entire thread is an invitation for creationist to provide examples of how I am wrong with creation "scientists" actually using the scientific method. Instead of that all we have are personal attacks. False claims about atheist and quite a bit of nonsense.


Is it really too much to expect creationists to support what they belief using the scientific method?

I would offer supporting evidence if I were citing some study... But I'm not. I'm just trying to create reasonable dialogue. I'm not interested in debate.

Unsupported nonsense is not a "reasonable dialogue".

All I said was that a lot of people feel unsatisfied with the extent of science's findings in regards to what induces life to behave the way it does. I don’t know why that would seem so "unreasonable" or like "nonsense".

...People are unsatisfied, obviously, so they've taken other measures, or gone different routes... It's really very simple.

I've never heard that. I'm not sure why he would though, as the primary motivation for creationism believe is religious belief and Hawking was not in a religion.

[Where is the pro-atheism money, and how do I get some?]

That is nonsense. Being unhappy with events that are well supported by evidence shows that a person is not reasoning rationally.

When you say that some are dissatisfied with evolution that only merits a "So what?" in response.

If one does not like scientific findings then the solution is obvious. Use science yourself to show that they are wrong. Creationists seem to be incapable of doing this. This thread is begging for examples of creationists using the scientific method to support their beliefs.

This is strong evidence of a multiverse.
A visitor from a parallel universe is describing events in their universe.

Show me the well supported evidence of *why* life evolved.

...If you can't, then just know that's why the hypothesis of Creationism exists, and will continue to exist as a hypothesis, until enough data is gathered to apply the scientific method... Until then, the scientific method will remain on the backburner.

...Should be easy enough to understand.
