Re: Is It Possible To Remake Creationism Into A Scientific Theory?

To anyone who hasn't seen this yet, here is a list of specific creationist claims, and refutations of them:
An Index to Creationist Claims

Some of the refuted claims have been made/mentioned in this thread. It might save everyone time to read and review before getting into any crazy arguments.

To be clear, you're saying you believe that some religious MD who runs his own website has therein provided sufficient refutation of thousands of pieces of peer-reviewed, published evidence spanning the fields of geology, paleontology, and genetics(to name a few).
You have to understand that this is an incredibly extraordinary claim to make. Especially given that the author of the website supports many fringe theories such as the religious pseudoscience of Michael Behe, which has been (almost unanimously) rejected by the science community and legal system as such.

Also of interest, 29+ evidences for macroevolution(heavy citation here):
