Thinking Can Undermine Religious Faith, Study Finds

Only if you don't know what you believe and why you believe it.

My husband, my kids, and I are VERY analytical thinking people and we ALL have strong faith.

Believing in God does not equate to kissing your brains goodbye.

Hootowl, you're right. Science depends way more on faith than most scientific types care to admit. The reason they don't acknowledge it is that for the most part, science is being used as an alternative to God for those who have issues over God that are NOT related to science or intellect. People turn to science for justification to reject Him.

[[Hootowl, you’re right. Science depends way more on faith than most scientific types care to admit.]]

the ‘science’ of evolution depends on faith more than religion does- it depends on blind faith in the scientifically impossible- it makes a god out of nature, equating the creation efforts of nature with htat of a rational, thinking omniscient God- it also invents things liek information out of thin air, apparently giving nature the rationalization powers of God Himself-
