String theories make certain predictions that cannot 
be currently verified. The theories do, however, jibe 
with know facts, unlike Creationism. (This is a point 
Bill apparently overlooks.)

String theory differs from Creationism in another way: 
When technology has advanced such that the predictions 
of string theory can be tested, string theory will 
stand or fall by the results of the tests. And should 
it fail, there will not be, hundreds of years hence, 
"Intelligent Stringists" demanding equal time in 
classrooms and bemoaning the scientific conspiracy 
against them.
