This is a very good presentation. However, the early Christians learned that the Earth was a sphere from the Greeks and not the Bible.The Bibles assumes that the Earth is flat, but under Greeks influence, the early Christians interpreted parts of the Bible relating to Cosmology in non-literal ways.

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!

kitab777

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.
