As a Christian, Bible-based organization, our goals are different.

How would that be different? Different from searching for truth?

No. :-)

They are forcing "findings" to a faith based fixed world view as apposed to modifying a model based on the discovery of new evidence.

Wasn't it Indiana Jones who said to his college class something to the effect of "we study facts here. If you are looking for truth, that is religious studies, down the hall."

Science is about how. Religion is about why.

Actually, yes.

"Creation science" is a terrible oxymoron. Science is about the pursuit of knowledge. When proven incorrect, scientists disregard their hypotheses. Creationists just talk louder.
