Could you fly if you didn't understand how aerodynamics work? You of all people should know how important the underlying foundations are. Even a pilot of a small craft needs to understand physics.

Creationism in biology is the same as telling pilots that a plane flies because God holds it up.

To you it is. There are others in science who see the handiwork of a designer because evolutionists have failed to conclude many issues. They can neither prove how the single cell came about even though it is highly developed and complex nor can ansewer how or why the eye formed, according to them life started without eyes, why did it have to develope if there was not the need? Maybe by design things could see? Nahh, thats mythology.

Sure we understand vast amounts but if your going to speak to foundations then start by having one to stand on. And I do not mean that to say that all of science supporting Evolution is junk, thats not it at all. But the chance that it relies on in all honesty is as good as what you claim of Creationists. Were not just saying "believe just because."

Perhaps you could tell us what DOES hold a plane up... There seems to be some controversy over this.

Not exactly, since people designed and built planes, and improved them using empirical testing coupled with theory.

GMO's aside, people have not created life ab initio and so don't have the same level of understanding.

Cheers!

Why is it that when creationists critique evolution, evos' first reply is "You don't understand evolution"; yet you folks can get away with stuff like this which indicates you don't have the first flying clue what creationism is?

As we've discussed countless times, much of modern science was developed by creationists of some sort or other. It was classical Christianity which fostered a worldview which motivated the very pursuit of scientific investigation.

As it turns out, Daniel Bernoulli, of Bernoulli effect fame, was from a devout Reformed Christian family. Doh!
