Topic: Science: A Misused Weapon in a Religious War

Abstract:
 If science and Christian faith are in ultimate harmony, why is there so
much conflict today in our school boards, churches, classrooms, and
courtrooms? The metaphor of war has been used since the late 19th century
to describe the severity of the conflict. The real war is not between
science and Christianity but between different religious perspectives,
with pseudo-science as the weapon of choice. Evolutionism, creationism,
and the Intelligent Design movement are key combatants in this religious
war between metaphysical naturalism and theism. By understanding these
forces, we can derive a better perspective of the relationship between
science and our Christian faith.
