Hi ,
In their headlong pursuit of their belief that evolution is true and scientific, and that creation is just a religious belief system, many evolutionists like to use terms like these: "Science vs. God", or "Science vs. Creation", or even "Science vs. Religion". etc. They often think that the two terms represent ideas that are completely separate. Their
thinking often boils down to this -- that "science" has determined the cold, hard truths about the world, and that "religion" helps people cope with that cold, hard truth.
The real truth, however, is that they themselves have a religious belief that science itself has determined what truth is. The problem with that
view is their use of the word "science". Scientific observation and testing can lead people down a road to discovery, but it's very limited. We humans add interpretation to the evidence. In their case, they believe that scientific interpretation of evidence for past events leads them to naturalism. We believe that the same evidence leads ONLY to design - to creation.
Because of their fear of the implications of creation, many evolutionists MUST try to separate the issues. In reality, there is NO conflict between what is actually observed (scientifically) and what the Bible teaches about it.
In
Christ,
