Hey Mordred,

I thought creationism was simply the assertation that the universe and all its complexities must be the work of a creator?
In a strict interpretation yes, which makes any comments by one kind of creationist about another kind being atheistic rather amusing.

For a bit of an overview of many of the different species of creationism that exist in the world look at

It's pretty neat stuff to discuss though. It raises the whole dream argument (are we even awake?), solipism, etc. I guess I just don't see how it can be scientific - scientific in the same sense as chemistry or physics, etc.
And the question is how do you validate concepts, how do you test for truth?

Especially when you get beyond the realm of testable scientific truth, into philosophy and religion.

Enjoy.
