NCSE, the atheistic National Center for Science Education, has published this essay to promote the materialist religion of dirt turning into people by natural processes if it is given enough time. They try to make the point that creationism is pseudoscience by introducing a bill that would force flat earth to be taught wherever astronomy is taught, in state legislatures where the “equal time for creationism” bill is introduced.
The creationists argue that creationism is just as scientific as evolutionism, but the problem is that both are pseudoscience. The flat earthers just ilustrate the issue. In science, one cannot presuppose a viewpoint, like dirt turns into people all by itself if it is given billions of years, or the earth is flat, and interpret all data as if the presupposition is true. Science can only tell us what works under certain limited conditions.
