If creationism is not scientific, according to your definition of 'scientific', perhaps your definition of 'scientific' is useless. To me it is, because I'm only interested in the truth (whether that be an old earth or a young earth), not your 'science'.

"...I'm only interested in the truth (whether that be an old earth or a young earth),..."
So. How are you going to resolve that question, hmmm?
You know, that isn't entirely idiotic: science would indeed be useless if you hang yourself up on a pre-defined notion without accepting new, improved evidence. Of course, this does not apply to science even nearly as much as it does to... well...
I heartily agree. If this 'science' thing doesn't agree with my preconceived conclusions about the world, than 'science' is useless for determining reality. Because, you know, reality is subjective.
"If creationism is not reality, according to your definition of 'reality', perhaps your definition of 'reality' is useless. To me it is, because I'm only interested in my own baloney (whether that be an old earth or a young earth), not your 'reality'".
There. Fixed.
Science has worked with that definition since ever and has produced the very computer you're using. So, be consequent, and disappear from the forum because it's OBVIOUS that a snake can't speak and that nothing of what you're using would exist if science hadn't worked that way.
“If creationism is not scientific, according to your definition of 'scientific', perhaps your definition of 'scientific' is useless.”
Perhaps. Perhaps.
But if the ONLY objection to the definition is that your superstition is excluded, that’s not much of a motivation to find a better one.
“ To me it is, because I'm only interested in the truth”
That’s not science, then, that’s a philosophical stance.
As you guys keep pointing out, science is always changing. That’s not TRUTH, that’s The Best Answer At The Current Time.
“(whether that be an old earth or a young earth), not your 'science'.”
If you’re not interested in science, why give a fuck if science includes or excludes your fairy tale?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
