That's true, but there *are* scientists who think that believing in evolution

would also take a leap of faith.

Well, there are some forms of evolution that are observable. Intra-special evolution certainly happens.

Tra la la. Both (creation/evolution) are 'unprovable', in the scientific

sense of experimentation and observation, being historical events, so you can leap either way. :)

That's basically true, however if we could discover the *processes* that are supposed to have gone on, then it would be easier to believe in the actual event.

For example, the Kennedy Assasination is an historical event. Unprovable scientifically and unrepeatable. But if you can scientifically prove the possibility of such things as automobiles, rifles, and movie cameras, then the incident becomes much easier to believe in than if you had no knowledge of those things.
