Steve and Goofus FFS stop using the words "belief" and "believe" in your futile attempts to portray science as a belief or faith system.

IT SIMPLY IS NOT!

The scientist actively seeks that which will supercede his current knowledge and is always aware that every question he manages, by dint of scientific observation and experimentation, to answer leads, not to "the definitive proof, but to more questions.

The faithful creationist, on the other hand, already knows it all 'cos it's there in the book, and will go to any lengths to twist, stretch and fabricate the evidence to support that firm prejudice.

There is not, and never has been, any scientific evidence pointing to the need for a deity, let alone the actual existence of one.

If, in the future such a need became scientifically evident, the whole science community would accept, even welcome that new knowledge, and incorporate into total body of scientific knowledge.

If, on the other hand, the process by which life emerged were evidentially confirmed to be entirely natural, not one single creationist would accept it, or change one iota of hard wired prejudice.

That is the difference.
