Future of Christianity in US

... And for esquilax I should add that the 'settings' cannot prove a designer... I should also note that for me the study of the universe and nature is a form of worship since I believe in a Creator... I think it is all quite remarkable and beautiful from the limits of the observable universe to the particles that give properties to matter. The study of the creation is magnificent, science and nature being a source of truth, and there is nothing to fear in finding out more.

So welcome to the Stone Age when people created their gods of nature, since they simply didn't understand the workings of their environment and knew much less about the universe.

Or welcome to the times of Babylonian astrologists or the ones of Central America, who started to see a pattern and attributed it to their gods.

That's pure romanticism without even an attempt at understanding or trying to understand what other more qualified people came up with.
