I argue that it is entirely reasonable to believe in Christianity while being a proponent of good science. I argue that there are many other good scientists who feel the same way.
Nope, it is unscientific. It has no science in it at all. It is an ancient book reflecting nothing about our modern knowledge of science.
Science does not prop up any holy book or any religion. If you think Christianity is the only religion to try to prop up a holy book with science, you would be wrong.
All religions try to co op science when they cannot attack it outright.
I have run into this same tactic with Muslims and Jews and even a couple of Hindus.
Science is a method, not a patent owned by any religion nor does it come out of any holy book.
