The psychology of creationism

By T.K. Randall
March 11, 2009 · Comment icon 3 comments

Anthony North takes a look in to the psychology behind creationism and how science approaches it.
Anthony North: There is a feeling among rationalists that the world is slowly going mad. The reason? The continuing growth of fundamentalist beliefs concerning Creationism. But what is at the root of this growing phenomenon? Well, first of all, science cannot – ever – prove it wrong. They can rant and rave; they can show how science shows it is not the case – but at best, this can only show the working mechanisms of a process, and not the ‘whys’."

And the planet cannot be 6 thousand years old. If anyone really believes that then they need to go back to a real school instead of a religious one. The fundamentalist believe the strict interpretation of the written book and as one really knows it has many holes in itself.
