proving Creation though Science. You can't do it.
Remember, proving means testing, not establishing something as an absolute. Creation can be tested, it has, it doesn't pass the test.
Perhaps it's time to propose modifications to the theory.

Exqueexe me?! I never said YOu were one. But you like to denigrate Sagan et al. with positions that are a tad more extreme than what they really espouse. For effect, perhaps?
My request was much simpler. Find me ONE Creation Scientist (doesn't mean you or anyone here, a citation or reference would be fine) who would sit still for a deconstruction ... you get the idea. You can't "proveit" religious tenets. And the irreducible bottom line with Creation Science is that natural observation gets shoehorned into the demands of revealed truth.
You can't reliably "proveit" some of our more accepted scientific theories, like the mudhole origin idea. But what honest people do is look at the world around them and try to fit what they see into patterns. If the pattern allows formulation of a model that is reliable - or better, predictive - that's science.
