Creationism doesn't, in my opinion, make any predictions. You have to go to Intelligent Design proponents like biochemist Michael Behe before you get predictions. He has the "irreducibly complex" theory, and a few examples of biochemical reactions (human blood clotting is one) that he believes are irreducibly complex.
Other scientists have tried to prove his examples weren't irreducibly complex (e.g., dolphins and puffer fish have steps removed from their blood clotting reaction compared to humans), but yeah. AFAIK, (biblical) creationism's whole point is "the Bible is right, QED."
- randallsquared 17y agoCreationists do make predictions regarding the Flood and other biblical events, and regarding the ages of everything else. During the 80s, when I was growing up Baptist, they liked to talk about intertwined human and dino fossils, and dino tracks crossing human tracks that were clearly older, and such. Dunno about now.
- TrevorJ 17y agoAh, ok. I do agree with that point. I was lumping "Intelligent Design" in with Creationism in my previous post.
