I read yesterday about how scientists had struck a major blow to one of the main arguments of creationists/Intelligent Design proponents. Apparently, many of them(us) argued (stupidly, I might add) that science couldn't even explain how bees fly, so why should we be expected to believe that science can explain the origins of life?
Of course, some scientists took the time to study some bees and figured it out. (Duh) So now they are saying (stupidly) that creationists can't hold that against them anymore and that we have to accept that science can explain the world around us.
Am I the only one in the WORLD, who realizes that science and religion are not oil and water? That science can in fact do a great job of helping us to unravel the mysteries of God's design? Sure, so science can explain how bees fly. Does that rule out that someone (God) thought it up first? I think not.
I feel like Christians and scientists have been yelling at each other for so long that we have stopped listening to anything that the other side is saying. Science is a very powerful tool and when used properly can help us to understand our world better. I still believe that the whole thing was God's idea, and I don't think that those two things are mutually exclusive.
They are all just pieces of the bigger puzzle, and we all need to spend a little more time looking at the picture on the lid of the box.
