More fruitful directions for creationists to concentrate edit

  • abiogenesis
  • nature of consciousness
  • balance of physical constants
  • questions about the role of the observer
  • work done on whether God had a choice when he created the universe
  • experiments suggested and ongoing in physics looking for evidence of a creator
  • the nature of renormalization
  • the nature of the vacuum
  • unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics

These and other areas are places where a scientific mechanism has yet to be successful. Attacking science in areas which are reasonably well understood and well supported with evidence is not particularly productive.

What it seems to indicate, is that creationists are not interested in:

  • finding the truth
  • working in a constructive manner with others who are trying to probe the mysteries of nature
  • compiling evidence demonstrating that God might be necessary to explain what is observed
  • allowing the pursuit of knowledge

but in trying desperately to defend biblical inerrancy. Not the best possible strategy, frankly.

This is especially true since many different sects disagree on what the bible means. To the point of killing each other.
