Well, philosophical naturalism (i.e., evolution) is rationally inferior to creationism. A creationist has the choice of invoking 'goddidit' or natural laws.

In other words, they can make up any damn thing they want, on the fly, and there is no need for any evidence whatsoever. Creation "science" at its best.

Thanks; I'll stick to science. You know, evidence and all that stuff.

Is Al Gore and his followers right about MAN causing Global Warming®?

Look who's really at risk for making up 'any damn thing they want'. It's the scientists, as admitted by Richard Lewontin.

"It is not that the methods and institutions of science somehow compel us to accept a material explanation of the phenomenal world, but, on the contrary, that we are forced by our a priori adherence to material causes to create an apparatus of investigation and a set of concepts that produce material explanations, no matter how counter-intuitive, no matter how mystifying to the uninitiated. Moreover, that materialism is an absolute, for we cannot allow a Divine Foot in the door." Richard Lewontin

Coyoteman shows his ideological dishonesty again. He really can't help it. It's who he is.
