"Discuss science topics such as creation and evolution and how they relate to Christianity."
this line describes this section of the message board. What confuses me is how "Creation" is a science topic. Not only is there no evidence for it, no data, no empirical support, no testing, no credible hypotheses or theories, but it doesn't even qualify as fitting into the criteria of "scientific". "Scientific" generally describes a process which observes reality using the scientific method. And since there is no possible way to study the ideas told in Genesis using the scientific method, it is a safe bet to assume "creationism" is not a scientific topic. Scientific topics would be things like geology, anthropology, evolutionary-biology, physics, cosmology, et al.
What scientific evidence exists to suggest creationism is a scientific topic? And if it isn't, shouldn't the admins change that line to something more intellectually honest and ingenuous?
Shouldn't the line say "Discuss science topics and how they relate to Christianity?"
