Evolution Trumps Creationism

[Jackalope]

I don't know a lot about Christian scientists, but I have a friend who may fit the way of thinking. My friend is "spiritual but not religious". He believes in evolution and thinks a lot of the bible is metaphorical and not factual. However, he is a stern believer in creationism. I think that Christian scientists, like my friend, are willing to accept science, BUT ONLY TO A DEGREE. My friend accepts science, but only that which doesn't conflict with his faith.

Funny misunderstanding. I meant actual scientists who are also Christians. I don't know anything at all about the CS sect, other than what you just told me, and the fact that I pass a CS "reading room" on my walks often.

I'm not sure he was referring to the cult of Christian Scientists (a.k.a. First Church of Jesus Christ, Scientist):

In over 50 cases, from the prosecution of Abby Corner in 1888 to the early 1990s, prosecutors charged Christian Scientists with manslaughter or murder after both adults and children died of treatable illnesses without medical attention.[198] Fraser writes that the "child cases," as they are known within Christian Science, began in 1967 in Massachusetts, when five-year-old Lisa Sheridan died of pneumonia without medical care, as a result of which her mother was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to probation.[199]

Christian Science (the cult) has about as much to do with science as science does with astrology.
