Those who try to come at it from a Biblical perspective never present it as "the theory of Genesis".

Try again, I don't understand what you are trying to say.

The scientists present it as a theory, which involves an implicit uncertainty and admission that the don't know for sure. The real scientists invite, expect and encourage people to question and challenge it.

Those coming at it from a Biblical perspective present it as dogmatic, unassailable truth, and do not well tolerate having it challenged or questioned.

I tend to be skeptical of dogma.
