Blog Highlights Pray for AiG Q: Does religion cripple science innovation? A: In the TV series Cosmos: A SpaceTime Odyssey, host Neil deGrasse Tyson warns of the danger of religious influence on science. He says it will create "a generation of people who will not understand what science is" and "they will be intellectually crippled" (emphasis his) in their ability to contribute as innovators in science and technology. Tyson further warns against substituting religious philosophy for science. But Bible-believing scientists do not "substitute" their religion for science. However they do trust that the universe they study using the tools of science was created by a logical, wise God and that He has told us some things about His Creation in His Word, the Bible. While it is possible and even common for fallible human beings to misinterpret both scientific data and the written word, Bible-believing scientists understand the correct interpretation of accurate scientific data will never conflict the correctly interpreted Word of God. Read the whole article and consider how the existence of consistent laws of science only makes sense in the context of a universe created by God.
