Creationism has nothing to do with alchemy.

Nor does it have anything to do with science. Creationism is trying like the camel to sneak its nose under the tent of science. Whether one subscribes to creationism or to evolution is secondary to the major issue: for creationism to be considered as science it must first become a science by virtue of using the scientific method to establish a data base. All the heated rhetoric in the world will not make creationism what it is not: science.

Actually IMHO that is what Intelligent Design theory is attempting to do, ground creationist notions in verifiable/falsifiable philosophy and science so it can be presented in a scientific way.

Jury's out on it, the idea may evolve over time. :-)
