The Burden of being good science

Evolution does not have all the answers. Creationist especially like to say that we, the evolutionists, cannot account for some aspects of the origins of life on Earth; and that they can. They are absolutly right, we can’t and they can. But then that’s the burden of being science: we only know what we observe in the natural world. Creationists on the other hand can simply refer to the Bible for all of there answers - looking to the natural world only to reaffirm their beliefs.

You may think this would put evolutionists at a disadvantage. Not being able to answer some very important questions. Hardly. By accepting Genesis as an acurate account of the ‘origin of species’, they have backed themselves into a corner which they must defend. While evolutionists can change their view to fit new evidence - creationists must find new and creative ways to insert new scientific discoveries into their origin story, often with hilarious results (early hominid fossils were just really old people).
