- Scientific Creationism is a movement founded on the assumption that, even
- if there is evolution, God could still have created the universe as the bible
- states.
-
- The bible has parables; therre are fools who claim that god created the
- world in 144 hours as we measure them today, but there are good, solid pieces
- of evidence that specifically allow for biblical creation (one of the first and
- most important is the time frame and another is the lack of fossil chains)
-
- While you can and should ridicule the idea that God MUST have done this,
- after all, the bible seems to have said so, be careful ridiculing someone for
- the word 'creationism'. All the word indicates is a belief that God, in fact,
- did have a hand in creation.
