Doesn the scientific creation model fall outside of the realm of science?
To answer this question, one must first understand what a model is. Webster’s New World Dictionary defines a model as “a generalized, hypothetical description, often based on an analogy, used in analyzing or explaining something.” Like macroevolution from the evolutionary model, creation events have not been observed in modern times, and cannot be simulated in a laboratory experiment and hence fall outside of the realm of the natural (observable) sciences. This fact alone does not invalidate the usefulness of the evolution or creation models. The scientific model of creation, like any good scientific model, is useful in explaining and predicting observations. It is the premise of this document that the scientific creation model is better than the evolution model because it explains already known observations without complex adjustments, it is simpler, and it readily predicts future observations.
