You’re now moving the goalposts.
We’re not talking about funding. We’re talking about whether a particular activity is science, or a fraud masquerading as science.
My observation of “origins” science is, so far, that both “creationists” and “evolutionists” are both doing science so badly that their activities border on fraud and sometimes cross the line.
Again, the creation scientists are basically self funding and trying to publish their own findings. They are not using government funding nor are they getting grants, and all of the current scientific publications, being run by evolutionists, are not allowing peer review or publication of these findings.
So I am curious how you have come to see their research as fraud? Have you been reviewing that research?
