One definition of faith is a "belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence." One could say, allow me some latitude here, science is "belief that rests on logical proof and material evidence." (I suspect that belief word will start a conversation, but Im going for contrast.)
Creationists are people of faith trying to win the argument on scientific grounds. It doesn't work because it's still faith masquerading as science; and so the debate goes on.
Not being a person of faith, I find I cant hold a meaningful discussion with the faithful. Its like trying to win an argument over which recipe is tastiest or which painting is the best. Im sure they feel the much the same about me.
