Creation is religion! Atheism is science!

Re: The false narrative:

Creation is religion! Atheism is science!

My rebuttal:
1. There is a Reality.. either,
  • The universe is God made
  • The universe is godless
2. Science is a method of discovery, to see which of these possibilities is most likely. It can only sort facts. It cannot conclude opinions.
3. Science is NOT anti-God, or anti-creation, like the pseudoscience ideologues like to portray it.
4. Opinions and beliefs, about these possibilities are not facts, or 'settled science!' They are personal conclusions, based on the information (or lack thereof) on hand.
5. Dogmatically declaring YOUR beliefs as 'proven fact!', only reveals indoctrination and/or bigotry. They are not facts, but beliefs.
6. ANY belief/opinion about origins is inherently a religio/philosophical issue. Science can only plug the facts into either model, to see which fits better.
7. Excluding the possibility of creation by labeling it 'religion!', while labeling atheistic naturalism. 'Science!' is just progressive propaganda.
8. Lobbying to censor creationism as 'religion!', while pushing atheistic naturalism as 'science!', is just religious bigotry, promoting YOUR beliefs, and censoring the competition.
