This is why I am usually pretty careful in choosing what terms I use, because so many are interchangable in meaning.
I wholeheatedly agree. I think this is where many non-scientists get the idea that evolution is a belief system. A scientist will say that he believes the evidence supports evolution. A YEC will then pop and claim that his beliefs blind him from seeing special creation. Belief in an interpretation of data and a belief in a supernatural being are quite different, at least to me.
