It is a juvenile attempt to throw mud at those who Creationists hate and despise; actual scientists who practice actual science.

That's quite a charge there, that creationists hate and despise *actual* scientists and *real* science.

Care to support it? What evidence can you put for to support your claims of *hate* and *despise*?

The history of the Creationist movement is that it was formed in opposition to a scientific theory. Thus in origins and intent, Creationism is anti science.

As time has gone by, Creationists have also opposed other scientific theories that they objected to, which include but are in no way limited to......

Heliocentricism
Plate Tech-tonics
Atomic half life decay
The speed of light
Geology
Paleontology
Archeology

etc, etc, etc.

Creationists MO, as evidenced by what gets posted on FR is to not do any actual scientific research themselves (Heaven Forfend!), but to snipe at real scientists doing real science and explain how it all supposedly supports the recent simultaneous creation of all species in their present form.

TQC, you are an actual, working scientist who believes the origin of species is best explained by biblical creation. According to Allmendream, you feel this way because you secretly have a juvenile hatred for scientists who practice actual science. I was hoping you could explain to us how this hatred began, how it consumed you, and how it led you to use creation science as a means to express your hatred of all things scientific.

PS Do you hate yourself when you practice science at work? Just curious....
