A Believing Scientist Approaches the Sciences

"Understanding the relation between science and religion is important and relevant. For various reasons the relation is sometimes one of conflict and sometimes cooperation. The Bible gives several examples of the conflict. Since both theological and scientific interpretations change with advancing knowledge, caution is necessary in basing one's theology on any particular scientific model. Examples of cooperation are also described, particularly the important positive influence that Christianity has had on the development of science."

This paper was presented at the 28th Institute of Christian Teaching.
