A scientific hypothesis. We might agree on the validity of the evidence.

I wasn't talking about CS here.
Quote:The United States National Academy of Sciences states that "creation science is in fact not science and should not be presented as such." and that "the claims of creation science lack empirical support and cannot be meaningfully tested."
Like I said, I agree with this. That doesn't alter what CS proponents themselves believe that they are doing, which is using a scientific defence, and never a religious one.
So my point at the OP stands. He rejects a scientific argument, and not a religious one.
