Description

Popular media delights in setting up faith in God as the antithesis of scientific progress. This seminar will present ways to challenge the myth that Christians have always been opposed to scientific progress by looking historically at how the founders of modern science rooted their scientific principles on a belief in an orderly universe created by God, and how we can develop an integrative framework for teaching science in the context of biblical revelation.

KITAB777, I think you might have stopped reading too soon! The first dozen slides are actually examples of how the ~myth~ that Christians are against science has been and still is being propagated today, and then the rest of the presentation demonstrates that the conflict thesis is in fact wrong. The author is very much against the view that Christians are against science!

the author of this document is taking for granted that christians are against science. I think you made a huge mistake. Catholic church was denying that earth was spheric-shape not the christians. Bible says on Isaiah 40:22 earth is rounded. Job 27:6 says earth is revolving in nothingness.
