The problem with Christian thought on these matters is that it is mostly a dead end. Christian creationism is stated as "god revealed it in bible and hence true" and it is not a result of curious human beings questioning themselves and trying to answer those questions and coming up with theories (Like in Buddhism or Hinduism). The problem with this is that you can't really evolve those ideas further refining them and eventually most of us simply find them shallow. A conversation on HN about this topic can be stretched in million directions many of which can be falsified and people might have an open mind as to pick which idea they want. In case of Christian faithfuls they are supposed to pick what the bible has already stated. Off topic: "Buddhist cosmological ideas" .. said the speaker with a short pause. "a disgrace". "They must be thrown out". Speaker was Dalai Lama speaking in Ashoka Hotel - New Delhi. I think when the Christianity accepts that sort of openness it will be possible to value Christian notions of cosmology and creationism much better.
