The problem with creationism is that it doesn't really answer any questions it only sidesteps them by using the blanket of..

"it is impossible to understand this as it was done by an ineffable omnipotent entity, and to try and second guess such an intelligence with the whit we are given is pointless on account that it is too vast. So we had just better stop thinking and do what we are told by the preacher who doesn't really have any more clue than the rest of us."

If you are going to adopt such a defeatist attitude you may as well stop there and go back to bed as you are only ever going to go round in circles.

The key is to think clearly and with out prejudice and certainly not to swallow the first dogmatic idea that comes along with out question.

Do not think I am criticizing religion, I'm not Im criticizing intellectual process.
