>>Likewise, I want those who read these threads to know that most of us creationists know what science is, how it operates, and how TToE works and simply have decided that we aren’t buying today, thank you.<<

If you understand science then it isn’t a question of “buying.” Science doesn’t work that way. If you introduce supernatural elements into scientific pursuits, you are doing theology, not science. It isn’t like you opt in. Scientific debates need to be based in science. You can disagree, but you can’t disagree from outside of the boundaries established by science and the scientific method. The very fact you ask this means you don’t understand science in the slightest and somehow think it is malleable like — theology.

>>Why is not agreeing with you considered *ignorance* anyway?<<

It isn’t a question of agreeing with *me* — it is a question of agreeing with (and thus understanding) what science is and how it works. It isn’t a matter of opinion, it is a matter of fact. If you are wrong on the facts, you are ignorant. if you have the facts available and choose to ignore them, you are willfully ignorant.

Being wrong on the facts of Scripture is more of a problem than being wrong on the ToE.
