#N:uiucuxc:3900053:000:944 uiucuxc!tynor Mar 3 11:30:00 1984 In previous notes, we (uiucuxc!tynor and uicsl!rmooney) have defined creationism out of science. Mr Miller has avoided this issue stating simply that it is "unfair" or "silly", but has not substantiated these claims. Are we to assume that he has no reply? We were recently able to confront Ray in person regarding the non- scientific nature of creationism. Since by definition supernatural causes can not be included in a scientific theory, we suggested renaming "Creation Science" as "Young Earth Science" or "All Life Appeared Suddenly Science" to which he replied, "You may have a point there..." We have not heard from him since on this point. Are we to assume that he agrees with us? If not, certainly he will take this up in his next weekly message.
