ok, I thought evolution is science and science is evolution and any attack on one is an attack on the other. So, evolution is to science as science is to evolution.

Hey, Gil, you might want to change your last entry from “philosophical speculation” to just plain “speculation”, “fanciful speculation”, or something like that. Philosophy - good philosophy, that is - is on the side of the angels in the ID debate, as attested by the likes of Bill, Paul Nelson, Jay Richards, etc.
Anyway, here are a couple of my suggestions:
E is to S as Dr. Strangelove is to Einstein.
E is to S as Gilligan is to Admiral Lord Nelson.

Good point Alan. I had materialistic philosophy in mind, so how about:
XX = Speculation Based on a Commitment to Philosophical Naturalism (a little wordy, but oh well)
YY = Engineering
and I’ll add
XX = Perpetual-Motion Machines
YY = Jet Turbines

Evo is to science as:
a logician is to a Darwinist.
Monism is to a Platonist.
Perfect circle is to Ockham.
Epicureanism is to a Stoic
Parmenides is to the world of appearance

Good examples…
I’d tweak your example Bill and expand.
E is to S as,
Paranoid Schizophrenia is to Mental Health,
(depending upon the day, hour, or minute, evolution changes and can be quite violent reaction for no logical reason)
or
E is to S as,
Sybil is to Einstein
Two, three, four or more faces of random variation personality vs one logical mind.
or, a historical moment of physical obliteration perhaps more apropos of NDE’s inevitable extinction by way of random mutational hits….
E is to S as,
Shoemaker-Levy Comet is to the Earth
Or in recognitin of Gilder’s enlightened moment,
Evolutionist are to Science as,
Earth and Heaven are to The Living Word, the everlasting I AM.
