Couldn't agree with you more on that one!
Creationism is laughable.
I am comfortable with a theory not having all the answers right now, as long as it is converging towards an answer in a coherent, testable, predictable, logical and margin of error reducing way.
The god idea does none of that.
The thing with science deniers is they want science to be a replacement for their fantasy of a God.
Science does not work like that.
The moment science cannot explain the beginning of life or the universe, they take that as a confirmation that God exists.
They are like "You see, you don't know the answer, it must be God".
It is like someone asking you "What is the exact number of the square root of two to the billionth degree?
And you saying "I don't know the answer to that"
And him saying "You see, you don't know, it must be 10.000 all the way, because you do not know the answer"
I am like dude, how do you get that perfect ten? Can you show me the math?
The fact that I do not know the exact square root of 2 does not mean I will not know a certain type of wrong answer when I see it. For starters, I know that the answer cannot be bigger than 2. The square root of a number cannot be bigger than the number itself.
The fact that I do not know the way the universe began does not mean that if you tell me it was started by Jomo Kenyatta, the first president of Kenya, I should just accept that, just because I do not know the right answer.
