theology is no replacement for science in understanding the physical world.
no scientist claims that we "have it all figured out" yet. but that is not the point, we know we're on a journey. but it's not a theological one. that's for theologians.
creationism is not an explanation of the physical world, it's stories written several thousand years ago dressed up in contemporary language.
i just don't see the point of all the obsession with it anyway. it's neither important to christian theology nor particularly relevant to living as a christian. millions of catholics are no less christian than evangelicals.
just because you can read something, doesn't mean you understand it.
i'm not confusing historical anything with contemporary practice.
yet "hindsight (aka history)" shows us that if a commonly accepted 'scientific model' does not work, the theory is slightly adjusted to fit the new evidence
