Neither creation or evolution produces medicine, as both paradigms are historical sciences that make inferences about the unobservable, unrepeatable past. The production of medicine has to do with operational science, which deals with the observable, repeatable present. Having said that, I truly believe Creation and ID scientists have an advantage over their evo-materialist colleagues because they are actually looking for design and purpose in nature (whereas the Darwinists are looking for random events that have been preserved by survival).

I see... so what we do here in the labs is called operational science? It uses the scientific method and that is what makes all the modern medicines? OK. What is done in our labs actually makes the medicines? That we seem to agree on.

Then you say that the Creation/ID and Evolutionists are separate things that are more akin to the underlying philosophy of science? Ok then GGG (btw do you prefer GGG or GodGunsGuts?), consider me an operational scientist.

I lean towards the evolutionist in only that there is much much more evidence for that deep past story. Someone finds me some evidence of a great super flood or Noah’s ark or can actually get God to come down and tell us how he just made the world in six days I’ll surely take that story more seriously. Right now it has way more holes than the Evo side. You know... like how women came from the rib of man. I don’t really see how that has evidence. Not totally sold on anything, I have an open mind, I’m just saying that one side philosophical side has more evidence.
