Lizard Breath,
Your commitment to finding the truth is admirable. Here is the distinct difference I (and others) see between ICR and other scientists.
ICR scientists follow these tenents that are found on
this page.
Just taking one of these shows us the problem with believing in their methods of research. For instance:
"The phenomenon of biological life did not develop by natural processes from inanimate systems but was specially and supernaturally created by the Creator."
So the hypothetical question you MUST ask yourself if you want to give this organization any scientific credence whatsoever is, "what would they do if they found evidence that was contrary to this very basic tenant?"
I can't answer that question, but things seem fishy based on the evidence we have already seen in this thread.
