Your quote was no one can rule out creation scientifically
If you cannot rule something out, then it cannot be falsified since the act of ruling it out would be falsification.
As far as creation, while the origins of life are a question of interest to evolutionary biologist and frequently studied in conjunction with researchers from other fields such as geochemistry and organic chemistry, the core of evolutionary theory itself does not rest on a foundation that requires any knowledge about the origins of life on earth. It is primarily concerned with the change and diversification of life after the origins of the earliest living things
By your response it is painfully obvious that you do not understand science

"If you cannot rule something out, then it cannot be falsified since the act of ruling it out would be falsification."
So will you go on record saying that we cannot rule out Evolution scientifically? If you say yes, then I guess it's in the same boat as Creation isn't it? The reason creation cannot be ruled out scientifically is because there is no scientific evidence to rule it out; therefor, a scientist who is a legitimate scientist cannot mock those who believe in it and still be a credible scientist. That is science. To mock the theory of creation is to become a philosopher not a scientist. A real scientist would say, it may very well be true, we have no evidence that states otherwise.

By George, I think he's got it! As you can clearly see from your very own description, Evolution and Biology are two completely different things. Biology deals with the origin of species and Evolution is a mere sub theory in Biology that states species evolved from a single species. Biology does not need Evolution in the least, it is merely a theory that may or may not be true. Creation of the species without Evolution is also a sub theory in Biology that states that all species were created as individual species without Evolution. Both are scientific theories, I happen to think that the last one is far more likely since it corrects the horrible randomness of Evolution and does not require millions and billions of years to be accurate.

Wow, somebody's cranky tonight. I understand science, it is you who seem to be lacking in understanding by discrediting the theory of Creation without any scientific evidence to do so. How is that scientific?
