Well, whether creationists say God just made it all happen, or “scientists” assert that suddenly all time and space just... Happened... There’s not really a dimes’ worth of difference in the magic of the moment. There’s really no point in the debate. Science and religion need not agree or disagree. They are studies of different things.
Science attempts to observe and describe. Religion attempts to understand. They’re different objectives. Science looks at a tree and names it, and gives names to all of its parts. Perhaps even to the subatomic level. But science does not understand the tree to the point it can make a tree from its component parts. Science can build a nice and perhaps accurate model of a tree... But so far anyway, they can’t make it alive. When science can do that, THEN they might have something to argue about but until then it is all a lot of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
Thank you for that response. I’ve been trying to point out the hypocrisy of calling either one [creation or evolution] science but they only hear what they want to hear and only try to defend the low hanging evo fruit.
