Ever heard the expression you can't prove a negative?
Changing points completely. there is a compelling scientific argument for creationism. As the arguument goes the complexity of the universe and all the improbabilities that go against the development of human life suggest that there must be some "Intelligent Design" behind it all.Did you know that at the start of light element production in the universe, the mass density and the expansion rate were in balance by 16 orders of magnitude? And that we needed this to be true in order for us to exist? We need a galaxy that contains the debris from exploded supernovae, and time for those debris to collect into a solar system with heavy elements -- because we're made from those elements.Another example. if you threw all the supplies necessary to build a model car into a box and shook it up, whats the chances that it would randomly assemble into a workable car? now take that probability and multiply it by 100 and you sould see why the "Intelligent Design" is a compelling argument.
However there is a retort to that argument, that I will keep to myself for now.
