For better or worse the standard of evidence for almost everything is more like “smoking gun” than “I found a bullet”. In some cases this is bad, in others it is good. Just consider all the criminal matters where the crime is only a crime if you can additionally demonstrate intent, which is strange right, since it doesn’t change outcomes / injuries at all. Since sufficiently ancient guns won’t even be smoking anymore this will be problematic for creationists even if they are correct, so I think we’d need a new kind of burning bush.
