Christians believe that God is the Creator and that nothing lives without his divine Will. Science based on Christian beliefs and values attempts to understand how God works his Will. I dislike the indoctrination tactics that some scientists and their secularist/atheist followers implement in science classes in essence attempting to exclude all other interpretation of the world to the exclusion of evolution...an obviously flawed and narrow understanding of life.

You and others here need to remember that science and reason as we understand it today could never have appeared without a foundation in Christianity.

Absoluetely! There's a lot of fundamental reseach to be done:

1) Does he sit on a throne when he performs his miracles, or does he stand up and make sweeping arm gestures?

2) Does he utter a mystical incantation? If so, is it in Hebrew or English?

3) Does he use angels to make the new species appear (perhaps carrying them down in divine carts or something) or does He make them just pop into place?

4) What *is* the deal with the whole "angels on the head of a pin" thing anyway?

Lots of work to do...

Science excludes consideration of supernatural causes because they are impossible to test or verify. Anyone wishing to assert a supernatural cause may say anything they wish without fear of contradiction by evidence. They can call anything evidence and weight eyewitness testimony any way they wish.
