I will say, I am a Christian and some creation based studies I do find interesting. Yet anytime anything potentially interesting comes up it is swept aside in favor of sensationalist articles / "research" that are touted as the greatest thing since sliced bread. Oftentimes despite the fact that they have been proven 100% wrong.

1) We barely know, for example, the truth behind 9/11, which was 14 years ago: with eye-witness testimony, camera footage, a handful of Investigative agencies, etc. How are we supposed to know what happened 4.52 billion years ago, let alone 4.52 million years ago, let alone 4.52 thousand years ago? I think we have gotten carried away with what we think we know. We barely have scratched the surface on "knowing" about the tool that, to the extent of my "knowledge", allows us to "know": the brain.
2) How did natural physiological and biochemical processes come into being? How did pi and phi, numbers that have an infinite number of decimal places with no repeating sequences, both manifest in nature? Also, planetary orbits can be likened to a golf ball twirling around the rim of the hole ad infinitum.
If I am wrong and this phenomenon of life is all just one big accident... then it wouldn't matter anyway because endless nothingness awaits regardless of what I do with my life. I'd rather fight for hope, no matter how hopeless things may look.
