What is the Relationship between Christianity and Science? From Dr. Jay Wile.

Nobel laureate Dr. Arthur Leonard Schawlow (left) and likely future Nobel laureate Dr. Henry F. Schaefer, III (right).

Today I would like to use my blog to direct you to someone else's blogpost.  In homeschooling my children, I have taught them what people believe about evolution, creationism, and the theory of intelligent design.  We have talked about what a worldview is, and how every person looks at the available evidence through the lens of his or her worldview.  My children know that I believe in creationism and that we study science so that we can learn more about God and his creation.

When my oldest two began secular college classes, however, they encountered the view that religion has no place in the scientific world, and even that those who believe in God must somehow be uneducated, because anyone who is educated enough will realize that God is not real and certainly is not a part of science.  The theory of evolution is no longer treated like a theory but is called "fact" in these classes.

Does religion, or faith, have a place in science?  Can a highly educated person believe in God?

Please take a few minutes to read Dr. Jay Wile's enlightening post on the subject here:

Relationship between Christianity and Science

Dr. Jay Wile writes excellent science curriculum that is used widely by homeschoolers and private schools.  He has written for Apologia and currently writes for Berean Builders.

I was blessed to be able to write a Study Guide/Lapbook for Dr. Wile's Science in the Beginning.  Watch for the Study Guide/Lapbook for Science in the Ancient World, available soon!
