I know the purpose of Science, and I say that all the time myself. But Science doesn't tend to just "fill the gaps?" What about the fact that the current Fossil record does NOT support Darwinism evolution? Transitional Fossils? Entropy in a large system? Natural Selection's flaws? Have you bothered to research the very ideals you believe in?
See, that's where we differ. I started as an Evolutionist. Brought up in a strictly non-religious household. Parents are Atheist, and so was I. I would argue for hours on end (much like now), except on your side of the glass. One day, I decided to REALLY study what I believed in. After all, I can't be the ONLY person that was right. The more I studied, the more I turned my entire world upside down. I've been in your shoes, walked a few (hundred) miles, and now here I am arguing against the very idea that I supported so strongly a few years ago. Don't think it doens't blow my own mind.
But that's the funny thing, you think I'm trying to change your beliefs, and that's the farthest from the truth. I'm simply asking you to really question, and to address the points I bring up. If you know so much about Evolution, my "propaganda" would be EASY to de-bunk and expose it for it's false statements. But you didn't, which shows me you're just taking the easy way out when you know you're in over your head. I'm more than willing to discuss this further, in a civil manner with no name calling or arguing, just simple and adult debate, if you want to. Otherwise, if anything would come out of this, I would hope this motivates you to explore your own beliefs a bit more, and question to see if they truly hold up...so far, they aren't.
P.S. As far as Creationism having no testable theories, that is 100% correct, you can't. But just as Science, you can state what we know by observing the world. Is it so hard to believe that when studying the world, people see intelligent design rather than chance? I know I do now. Cheers man, good times.
