What specific predictions does the creationist 'model' make?

What kind of prediction does Creation need to make?

Creation predicts that the human condition will devolve. Have you noticed how many people around you are fat, ugly, wear glasses, are in wheelchairs, can't reproduce, have heart desease, have extreme allergies, etc etc etc. There is a prediction that creation makes that you see coming true all around you.

Why? What will cause this "devolution"?

Are you saying that people who you consider unattractive did not exist until recently, or that there has been a marked increase in the number of overweight people in recent times? What evidence do you have for this assertion?

If it's ever going to be taken seriously by science, it will have to account for all the phenomena that the current theory does, and then predict new things. Then these predictions will have to be tested, and shown to be correct. Think of the way Special Relativity accomodates Newton's theory and also predicts new things at high veolcities.
