Where does philosophy meet science?

1. What is the difference between science and philosophy?
2. At what point does science become philosophy?
3. Does this debate on Creation evolution cross into philosophy?
When atheists are clearly answered and they run away because they have lost, then they claim they were never answered, are they liars?

'Blind acceptance'? That's a very cavalier remark. Do you not think people have good reasons for believing what they believe?
of the premise that things like value and morality are not subjective opinions but rather must be some sort of hardcore objective truths.

Moreover, how do you propose to obtain a final truth judgement on something like value and morality using pure philosophy alone?
Philosophers have written a great deal on these subjects. J. Peterson has also said much.
There's a very good chance that I will value different things than you will value. That right there already makes value subjective. It's a matter of personal subjective opinion. Period.
