As always, the biggest problem with the Creationist vs. Evolutionist argument is that neither the Bible nor the current scientific explanation of the universe contain enough information.
B: No the biggest problem is ignorance.
God did not inspire the Bible as a means to explain the nature of the universe.
B: I think any rational minded person can agree with that.
Scientists 'know' what currently is accepted as the makeup of the universe, and much of their 'understanding' is completely wrong.
B: What is wrong? And according to who? You?
We can't even truly explain gravity, except by it's action.
B: Well, your 90 years behind the times. Einstein explained gravity as result of the distortion of space-time by the presence of mass. As to how that works exactly, I'm not really qualified to say, but if you Google "Higgs Boson" you might realize that there are explanations for even that. But your statement, taken at face value is wrong and numerous studies have been performed which show that Einstein's view of how gravity works is correct.It is not something that is known through interaction, it is understood theoretical grounds as well as empirical ones.
And never ceases to amaze how people believe every fool thing they read in a newspaper or on a bumper sticker is gospel.
Ignorance of available data is a problem. But we do not know enough about the universe to describe it's makeup and creation accurately.

Stephen Hawking admitted that his concept about black holes, which was widely accepted by the scientific community, wasa entirely wrong, based on recent observations. Many of our theories currently accepted, will prove to be wrong. Just as many in the past were.
Einstein explained gravity as result of the distortion of space-time by the presence of mass.
Another theory. Represented by a three dimensional graph. Which is cool if the universe can be mapped as a flat plane, which it isn't. The term space-time is convenient, but used wrong. Ignoring the principle elements that are a part of 'empty' space, just what is being distorted, since space (in our concept) is the antithesis of matter? And distortion of time? Causing Gravity?
But your statement, taken at face value is wrong and numerous studies have been performed which show that Einstein's view of how gravity works is correct.
Perhaps INCOMPLETE is a better description than WRONG.

Explain magnetism. Why does Earth have the Van Allen Radiation Belts? Why is the surface of the sun cooler than the photosphere? What is the core of the Earth made of? Why doesn't the moon rotate with respect to the Earth?
These questions and answers are not in newspapers or on bumper stickers, and not my source of information.
