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.
Sorry, that's who I thought I was talking about. IMO, scientists who are Christians, like my friend, they believe in science but also have to believe in Creationism and Christian faith-based morals. They still live under the grasp of Christianity, even if it is a considerably smaller grasp than a fundamentalist's.
If I'm still not grasping what you're asking, then I plead the 5th and should get back to work.
