I do not hold to the idea that God's existence can be proven by scientific examination. Nor can science disproof the existence of God. God is just not the sort of "thing" that science is qualified to investigate. Science is properly limited to investigating and explaining the physical universe.Fr.

But even they take off their God Helmets when they walk into a lab. Francis Collins will be the first to tell you that his faith is emotional, not scientific.<br /><br />Intelligent Design, irreducible complexity, and the fine-tuning argument are the sorts of things they teach you in Jesus Camp, but no real scientist takes them seriously. They’ve been debunked repeatedly.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18842286.post-83277739480848334082014-08-05T10:50:14.780-05:002014-08-05T10:50:14.780-05:00There are plenty of those examples, too.
