Creationism has explanatory power (Talk.Origins)

Claim CH001:


 * Creationism is explanatory. It can accommodate all the results of evolution, and more. In particular, it can also explain the results of a Designer.

CreationWiki response: (Talk Origins quotes in blue)

This is a misrepresentation of the source. It is clear that Talk Origins chose the wording they did, so as to be able to jump on the word "accommodate." This reduces it to a straw man argument.

This is simply saying that design does not totally eliminate the evolutionary mechanisms of variation and natural selection&mdash;it merely reduces their importance.

Design does explain why organisms work the way they do, in the same way that it explains why a car works the way it does. It also explains why organisms are capable of adapting to changes in environment.
