“Given all the gaps in fossil record”
Meh. The ToE would still be sound even if all the fossile record were removed.
“and gaping holes”
1. That the ToE cannot answer questions about the Big Bang is a gaping hole, but not in the actual theory.
2. Saying ‘I don’t know’ is not a weakness, as the unspoken ‘yet’ is always tehre.
“in the dying theory of evolution,”
Sounds like Trump, every time a show criticizes he, he says it’s dying, or the Network is going bankrupt…Wishful thinking.
"I think it's pretty clear that scientists should start taking Creation Science a little more seriously.”
There’s still no ‘science’ in Creation Science. You have a book. You filter evidence to support the book.
It gains ZERO credibility from any problem in the ToE.
“If the government gave Creation Scientists as much money as they were giving to evolution scientists,”
If they need money, why don’t they just pray for it?
God answers all prayers, right? If they’re from True Christains…
"the issue would be over and done with.”
Nope.
“Creation Scientists already have the answers, all they need is the funding to verify the Bible by doing the science.”
You really do mean by faking the science.
Part of creationism is magic, and science can NOT do magic.
“Further, I would add that evolution, if taught at all, should be taught as a religion.”
PRATT.
