And it mighty well did. Now that I have settled down, the whole methodology that creationists use in propagating their propaganda is quite interesting. The fundamental core of creationism is the infallibility of the Bible. They are out to show that Genesis is an accurate account of the creation of the Earth and the Universe no matter what the cost. And in such cases truth pays the first price.
Science has nothing to do with creationism.
In fact, the majority of creationist writings try and attack evolution. There are scant creationist articles that actually try and frame their ideas in a scientific manner. One reason is that when one bases their belief systems on the supernatural there is no science. The other is that the battle over creationism and evolution is a war of ideas. In such a war ignorance is the main weapon.
