"Creation cannot be tested. Therefore, it is not science." (Claim #E489)
Response
Biblical, young-earth creation in particular is very testable. It makes the following testable claims:
- The earth is about 6,000 years old
- All humans are descended from Adam and Eve (one race)
- All life on earth is descended from distinct kinds of animals
- God originally designed life perfectly, but Adam’s sin caused a curse on creation
- A global flood occurred around 4,000 years ago
- God dispersed people groups at the tower of Babel shortly after the Flood; therefore, we should expect to find distinct language types or groups
- The history in the Bible can be tested
- Prophecies in the Bible can be tested
- The resurrection of Christ can be investigated
Etc. Biblical creationism is extremely testable, and we find overwhelming evidence that it is true.
