[QUOTE="Aussie Pete, post: 74846529, member: 421731"] First and foremost by shutting God out of the realm of science. Most of the pioneers of science believed in God at least to some degree. Some were Deists, some were Christians and others were of other religions. Evolutionary theory is used as an attempt to make God unnecessary. Science turns the argument around. It demands that Christians prove that God exists. Since that is not possible to the philosophy of science, it's an unwinnable proposition. All you have to do is check out the vitriolic responses to someone like James Tour, Stephen Meyer, and anyone else who disputes evolution. Professor Tour advises his students not to state that they reject evolution. It will be the end of their careers. I'm not against science as such. I do have a problem with the concept that science can solve all the problems of the human race. That is patently nonsense. I take issue with the idea that God and science are mutually exclusive. When I was in high school, evolution and creation were taught as equally plausible and I was permitted to make up my own mind. That is no longer the case. [/QUOTE]
