Michael, your reverse list bears no resemblance in any way to the original list.

And where/how did atheists get brought into this discussion?

The original list was created with the premise (with a little
stretching) that if an invention was created BY USING THE PRINCIPALS
of a science that you do not believe in, you should not benefit from
or use that invention.

A list of items create by a creationist inventor BASED ON THE SCIENCE
of creationism, or new earth science, etc, would be a comparable list.

Either list is silly, though, because in order for a person to stop
using an item that was created with science not believed in, you have
to believe that the item WAS CREATED using that science.

Most Creationists I have met and read would not add the cure for polio
to that list, since it is obvious evolution did not aid in creating
it. there is no such thing as evolution. Plus, it is pretty obvious
the vaccine was created by The Lord. The same is true for all the
other cited examples.
