However, actual scientists and engineers DO have a monopoly on intelligence and understanding of our physical world.

Epic FAIL

Scads of other people besides scientists have an understanding of our physical world -- they just haven't categorized it mathematically in a way which allows them to predict and control it as successfully.

Not just doctors -- even traditional Chinese medicine or chiropractors can get things right occasionally.

Or weatherpeople -- I'm still looking for the legendary clip on The Weather Channel where the female weatherbabe is having to say the words "Typhoon Longwang" on the air...

Cheers!

No doubt you are correct....but the context of the discussion was between “Creation Scientists” and real scientists.....

As you rightfully point out many many people do and have very detailed understanding of the physical world - however NONE of these people are “creation science” types - which was the context of my point. I’m sure you understand it now.

I stand corrected.
