It is thought, is a MUCH different statement, then Goddidit.
The real difference between the creationist and the evolutionist is that one admits he's not a scientist, and the other pretends he has no faith.
Ahh, another one of the those, if your not a creationist, you are not a real christian, but if you understand that evolution is the best scientific theory to fit the evidence, then you are an atheist.
I have a little news for you, creationists are a MINORITY within the christian religion, most are in fact theistic evolutionists, but are not adherents to ID, because they understand that god is a faith based principle and is not and cannot be used in science.
I am a theistic evolutionist, I have my faith, but I also understand science.

(If the history of science shows us anything, it is that we get nowhere by labeling our ignorance god)

Haven't seen a Darwinist yet who didn't make lots of leaps of faith. I had to laugh because so much of evolutionism is "and then a miracle happened." Only, it comes out "and then a million years took care of that little inconvenience."
Evolution is a marvelous descriptive tool for the classification and understanding of the interrelatedness of life. A useful paradigm, if you will. But the conclusions drawn are so laughable, so outlandish! "Splitting from chimps." Yeah, of course, we split all the time. I don't so much argue that creationism is scientific--I don't have to. I have no interest in such a thing. Evolutionism porports to be scientific, and it is not. It's time for the Darwinists to redefine themselves as a religion, or a philosophical ideology like existentialism.
