For the last few weeks, I've been waiting for some creationist to post to the net an explanation is scientific creationism. SOMEBODY out there claimed that there exixts a reasonably scientific theory which included creation as the origin of species. Will I wait in vain? Was 'somebody' only trying to gain argument points by making this (so far) unsupported claim? If nobody does post a description of scientific creationism to the net, I'll have to assume that no such theory exists, and that creationism is only religion, as I have always suspected it to be. Is that why no explanation has been forthcoming?

INTERVIEWER: Well, God, I wonder if you would tell me why you made the fossils, and why you made them appear to be so much older than the Earth really is? GOD: Oh, the fossils? Well, they were just for laughs, really.
