Christianity and the 10 Commandments

This is all like saying that, since we know rocks can fall to Earth as meteorites, this means that the most likely explanation for every rock we see is they're all meteorites. A process which accounts for one observable facet of nature doesn't automatically account for all others, however similar. That's where scientific investigation comes in of course (and where "creation science" goes out).

No no. Not presumptions that are so obvious but more subtle ones. It is presumed that time and space is uniform but what if it's not? It used to be presumed that space was nothing, but now it's increasingly being thought as an entity. This is how theories of wormholes started to rise. It was also presumed time was uniform, but we now find that it's not; proven by Einstein. Everyone has preassumptions, but the question is what are yours? Even Stephan Hawking admits to his.

we are not able to make cosmological models without some admixture of ideology.

Ideology is personal beliefs, so he admits that many of the theories they come up with is a mixture of evidence and personal beliefs.
