GD: Are you claiming that evolution is steady, predictable and replicable?

I think it fair to repeat a question I've asked before (and for which no positive answer was forthcoming):

In the great advancements of science, of what importance was Darwinism to bringing these advancements about?

Advancements in understanding such as: Circulation of the blood, that nerves carried electrical impulses, atomic theory, development of antibiotics, metallurgy, electricity/magnetism,.....Anyone could add many more, but the point is that Darwinism has been a bust except as a motivation for the space program.

I answered that one in the other reply.

Either “supernatural means” were used at some point,
or there is no Creator, and you have totally undermined the foundation of Christianity, because, to Whom are you accountable if there is no Creator?

So, whether that supernatural even occurred at the supposed “Big Bang”, slightly before, or during the 6 days of creation, followed by “non-interference” afterwards, it matters not in the ability of prediction, discovery, and useful predictions.

I’ve ready about non-Christian cultures and their attempts at science. The basis of modern science assumes orderliness and predictability, which is exactly the Biblical description of the post-Creation universe.
