I’ve never had a problem with it either way. I don’t believe in the young Earth theory but I also do not believe in neo-atheist interpretation of evolution nor in many of the nonscientific and nearly wholly made of stories that some craft around remnants of bone. Science does not need to be in conflict with religion. It wasn’t for Newton, Galileo, Copernicus and many others. Many like to cast the debate involving the particulars of evolution and creation in simpleton terms. I think that Science benefits from debate. It spurs a challenge to those who are convinced they have the right hypothesis and that is always a good thing because history shows that conventional wisdom whether scientific or not is very often wrong.

I’d go so far to say that since I know God is real and that science is what we can observe and learn that that when they appear to be in conflict it is likely because there is something we have not figured out yet.
