This book is extensively footnoted and is suitable for a textbook in creation science.

Isn't 'creation science' a contradiction in terms? Science constantly challenges its hypothesis while creationism doesn't challenge the literal acceptance of the Bible.

Science constantly challenges its hypothesis ...

I would argue that once consensus is achieved in any theory, the proponents cannot assimilate new empirical data that contradicts the theory.

Then it is no longer scientific progress, but rather, the propagation of a myth.

“Science constantly challenges its hypothesis”

Nothing could be further from the truth. Read ‘The Structure of Scientific Revolutions’ by Thomas Kuhn. He tore the curtain off the myth of the ‘scientific method’ once & for all. Unless & until you read it, you simply have no idea. [Btw, afaik, Kuhn was an atheist.]

Wrong. Evolutionism, an opposing faith, attempts to pervert science to confute creationism's agreement with scientific fact.

Here’s a question for you. How many global warming-believer scientists are ‘constantly challenging their hypotheses’?

Hint: “hide the decline”.

Sure, many creationists constantly test the accuracy of the Scriptures.

It holds. Other theories don't.
