Excellent points...but I will focus on this one, as I am in the midst of a whiskey tasting.

While the claims do indeed make the evolution of both possible ( nothing changes without new data), Scientific disciplines tend to use physical information found by means of sampling the reality we know, and touch regularly. This may be the unseen (quanta/micro) or the macro world we deal with daily. Theist reality falls back to scripture by default, as there is nothing other than the ancient writings to rely upon. The Gods no longer speak to us....unless you follow the Falwell doctrines. Science speaks every day.
