Science was once a child of the church.

[mickiel]

I disagree, science left because it wanted what the church had; power, influence, position in the public, respect and admiration.

You continue to miss my point. I am starting to feel like you're doing it on purpose.

Also I agree that Atheist have every right to like science and use it in their arguments; I use science in my arguments for God being real everyday.

So....what was the point if your original post then?

To show that science once had a good history with religion, and it lasted a long time. To get into that history, but I have been sidetracked a bit, being sure I respond to everyone, according to the rules.
