Pointing out problems and objections in one theory is not the same thing as building an alternative theory.

Trying to pick holes in evolution doesn’t make creationism a science.

Correct. Facts and evidence do. And there are plenty of both. Let them be heard!

True enough. But if those wholes are being picked based on the hypothesis that the biblical account of creation and the noaitic flood are true, then it’s science. For instance: creationists predict that the earth is young, they predict not a tree of life, but an orchard of trees with no transitionals outside the bounds of the biblical kinds; they predict evidence of a global flood, etc, etc. They are forming hypothesis, and they are testing the same using the scientific method. That’s science.
