Well, personally I welcome well-founded criticism of any scientific theory. What I object to is pseudoscience (which is what creationism is). People can believe whatever they want as far as I'm concerned. Just don't claim it's science (when it's not) and should be given equal status to science, and be taught in science classes.

I agree that the empirical approach is the foundation of scientific method, but can only say i am waiting for the next big thing, the recent failure at the LHC was a huge disappointment
