Creationism vs Evolution

It seems pretty unreal that the scientific community gets so wound up over the prospect of teaching creationism along side of evolution in public schools. Most of us have heard of the "theory" of evolution. That’s the point, it’s only a theory. It's never been proven as scientific fact. Too many presumptions and holes fill the theory for it to be stated for fact. Here are some interesting things according to Karl Popper's definition of the scientific method.

1. OBSERVATION -steps of evolution have never been observed (Stebbins).
In the fossil record we view our data as so bad that we never see the very process we profess to study. (Gould)
2. EXPERIMENTATION -The processes would exceed the lifetime of any
human experimenter (Dobzhansky)
3. REPRODUCTION impossible to reproduce in the laboratory. (Dobshansky)
4. FALSIFICATION -cannot be refuted thus outside empirical science. (Ehrlich)

According to this, Evolution cannot be proven as fact by scientific method and therefore must retain its status as a theory. Now, the word theory means:
Theory, an assumption or system of assumptions, accepted principles, and rules of procedure based on limited information or knowledge, devised to analyze, predict, or otherwise explain the nature or behavior of a specified set of phenomena; abstract reasoning.
According to Encarta, this is the definition of theory. It is merely an assumption based on limited information or knowledge, but yet they contend that creationism isn’t factual, but only a myth. According to what we little we have talked about on the subject of evolution, it seems like evolution itself is in the same boat, a myth. So with these two theories standing on at least on equal ground, it seems that the elite in society would look at all the possibilities, including creationism. So I contend that teaching both with equal attention is not only appropriate, but required if true science is to prevail. Just some of my thoughts on the subject. The information listed above about scientific method is from the website www.creationevidence.org, by Dr. Carl Baugh. God Bless You All. I will be posting more blogs later on, STAY TUNED!
