I don't mind if people believe in creationism. I generally assume that these folks are either idiots, or they have very deep religous convictions that override their belief in science.

What I do mind is them trying to pass their religous belief off as science.

I also get very irritated at their DISHONEST attempts to discredit evolutionary theory. They constantly pick away at the use of word 'theory'. Do you know for a FACT how and why gravity works? Well, scientists don't. They have a good THEORY (relativity) that has been advanced and studied, but no one is the physics community is getting ready to create stone tablets that state it as law. And yet we accept this as theory as the best explanation we currently have.

Likewise, no one is stating that evolutionary theory is fact. It is not. But we have a 100 years and millions of manhours of study and research that suggest it is the best explantion we currently have. To suggest the ID, a 'theory' advanced by a few nut jobs is somehow a competing theory to evolutions is utter horse*****.

I find is disturbing to see people of faith taking part in such an obvious fraud in the hopes of foisting their religous beliefs on the rest of the population.
