Creation Science Isn't

Because I'm in my early random thoughts period of blogging, I'd like to make this point clear:

Science is the study of natural phenomenon based on experimentation that strives to disprove the theoretical. As soon as something supernatural is thrown into a theory it becomes untestable and lies outside the bounds of science.

Therefore, "creation science" isn't science and shouldn't be taught as such. So there.

However, that doesn't mean creation science is necessarily wrong, only that it isn't science. Heck, reality could just be that the universe was created by the burp of a bullfrog and three fairies over a dull weekend. But there's no way to test that theory scientifically.
