"On Science vs. God"
In typical fashion, mankind has pitted God against science, science against God. Man has a way of doing that, turning things into a competition, a war fought between two opposing sides. It has to be "I'm right, you're wrong," with the church as guilty as those who are repulsed by all things religious. Any quest for truth is put to the side as skirmishes take place, the "winner" reveling in a perceived victory.
In a virtual standoff, the two contradicting sides stand with their weapons drawn--ready, willing and able to go to verbal battle for their cause--those espousing data and studies, education, and science with their sheepskin diplomas facing those with their faith and Bibles in hand. The cacophony is deafening.
As creator of life and all that exists God is, indeed, the father of science; likewise, He is more than just written words to be lobbed through the air like cannonballs with no real direction or force. It would be wise, and only makes sense, for those in both positions to become acquainted with the author of all things before taking up arms and going to war. Knowing Him vs. knowing about Him; what is vs. what I think. There is a difference.
It's that truth thing.
