" IT IS NOT SCIENTIFIC!!You're rant goes overboard. You are overestimating the effect creationism has had, does have, or can have on science, education and society in general. Setting up such a strict dichotomy between science and religion serves no other purpose than to make yourself sound smart.
Some of the greatest scientist ever known, including many upon whose shoulders today's scientists stand, are creationists. They don't flout the baggage. They don't have to, and they would feel awkward in doing so. They just are, and they've done very well with the brains they received as a gift from God.
In truth, I think you show yourself to be a thankless fool for so brazenly rejecting the accomplishments of those who belive God has a hand in existence.

Give me a fricking break!!
When did I say that all scientists are not religious, or perhaps are not creationist. Come on, give me a fricking break.
Don't put words in my mouth, you can be as religious as you want, and still be a scientist, and still be an evolutionist, and indeed be a creationist as well, not a LITERAL creationist surely, but a creationist all the same.
ALL I AM SAYING IS THIS, CREATIONISM/ID ARE NOT SCIENTIFIC, they are RELIGIOUS!!! Evolution is Scientific!!
Evolution should be taught in a science class, creationism should be taught in a religious or philosophy class.
Why is it so HARD for you to understand?
I couldn't care less if a scientist BELIEVES that god had a hand in creation, as LONG as they do not try to put it in a theory and try to call it scientific. God is religion, facts are science. Religion is a belief structure, based on Holy write, whereas science is based on facts as they exist at that time.
Again, WHY IS IT SO HARD FOR YOU TO UNDERSTAND?
Is it really so hard for you to understand, or do you just not want to understand it?
