- I personally think this is really hilarious when I think about the grip
- on science the Christian church had for many, many decades. And all the
- wealth of the Church has been unable to sponsor more scientists to finally
- after thousands of years produce the theory of Creationism.
-
- Moreover, the current way of science is to let a better theory superseede
- a bad one, and if there was something like a Creation theory that easily
- was proven and showed the truth, the universities would teach and
- investigate
- this theory today. As long as there is nothing, it is classified in the
- same
- group as theories on UFOs, Loch Ness monsters and similar fringe sciences.

- A scientific theory is much more than an opinion. Can this be be
- falsifiable,
- yes, no, if not it's just an opinion. Where's the empirical evidence?
