the contemporary scientific enterprise is locked in to interpreting data to fit into a naturalism framework which means all theories, discoveries, and phenomenon must explained materialistically or make an appeal to the future. so what else could he say even if he thought otherwise? naturalistic researchers, scientists, authors will never interpret data, observation that won't have a materialistic conclusion. for instance - "Biology is the study of complicated things that give the appearance of having been designed for a purpose." -Richard Dawkins. interesting to read what they say, but the conclusion won't be philosophically unbiased.
In the past science was all about looking for evidence of god and trying to explain his creation.
It moved away from that when it became clear that the requirement for a divine creator was and would most likely never be found, in fact "materialistic" answers were all that was required for everything.
I am in fact unsure how a non-materialistic view of the universe could explain anything at all in any meaningful way
this is obvious stuff, so how did the board members get their minds tricked so easily?
Atheist Credo: A universe by chance that also just happened to admit the observer by chance.
