Well no.

In the end conventional science versus creation science is about what 
you find the most inconceivable - a Big Bang N billion years ago in 
which a broken symmetry started time in the exact way it appears, or a 
supernal Being who dreamed it all up a few thousand years ago and faked 
it to *look like* it was N billion years old. Or whatever the current 
figure is.

And those are not the only narratives that exist. And they are in the 
end metaphysical. They can't be proved to be correct, only more or less 
useful, in any given context.

Its not turtles all the way down, it's *models*.
