Scientific / Creationist Methods

A key area of debate between sciencific and religious people is that of Evolution vs Creation.

The following differences soon become apparent in discussions on this hot topic.

Scientific approach: I wonder how this works?
Let's gather all the evidence we can can find and form some ideas, theories and conclusions to try and make sense of it all.

Creationist approach: God did it.
Let's see how we can interpret the evidence to fit our beliefs.
Or, when in trouble, let's see how we can re-interpret our book to incorporate the evidence.
