Scientists don't bash creationists; we do. And, science is actually out there working on gathering evidence. As pointed out by my earlier posts creation "scientists" don't actually do any real scientific work. Their research is based solely upon perusing evolution literature looking for quotes to pull out of context.

So, Junior, I know you're a bright guy. Why is your problem with Creationism not separable from Darwinism as science? The question really is why would anything the Creationists say bother you if this is about science? The physicists (i.e. most physicists) don't get upset when anyone, Creationists included, questions their work. They just do the science in accord with the standards of science and let it speak for itself, more-or-less. That garners my respect. And would you agree that this a fair question?

If it's a matter of hating lies, then we are of like mind. But why then don't you equally go after the liars on your side of the debate? If it's a matter of hidden agendas, well, everyone's got an agenda, hidden or otherwise. It's called being human. But the beauty of science is that facts can (usually) be separated from agendas.

Nonsense. Scientists could care less about evolution (unless there is a grant involved). The major figures of evolution have not been scientists (and that includes Darwin). Dawkins is no scientist, he is just a popularizer of the atheist philosophy as was Gould. Neither of them ever did any scientific work in biology or any other legitimate scientific field (they were paleontologists and that is science fiction, not science).
