A. Creator | B. Act of Creation | C. That which was created

Science will never be able to tell us anything about A, and probably will never be able to tell us anything about B.

Science studies C.

If any scientist tries to tell you that A or B don't exist, he's blowing smoke.

Well stated.

I must point out that I have seen on these threads, the data gathered in the study of C being (mis?)used to make a particular inference about B, and even further to question (or outright dismiss) the possibility of A. I believe that this dichotomy is false.

As far as the inability of science to comment on A or B, I am (as a theist) quite excited about the work being done in the area of theorectical physics. Specifically, on the possibility (or mathmatical certainty for more daring physicists) of multiple co-existing dimensions. I am pretty certain that a place has been prepared for me in one of those dimensions (called "mansions" in the new testament), and that I will see for myself what Paul commented on in II Corinthians.

Richard Dawkins comes to mind. Although he does a great job writing Biology.

Well... I'd say "he's not speaking as a scientist, but a philosopher".
