one passage that relates to this whole topic is 1 Timothy 6:20-21 "O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called: Which some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee. Amen."

No it doesn't. That had a specific meaning in the first century totally unrelated to modern science. Something Father George V. Coyne probably knows, and the ill-educated boobs pushing Creationism don't

You err, bird boy. The Word of God in not trapped in time and man's vain desire to justify himself with "knowledge" is constant as well. God is the Author of all creation, including what we call science. While the Bible is not a science book, when it speaks about science it is truthful. And when science agrees with the Scripture (as when the "non existent" pool of Bethesda was recently discovered), it's not the Bible being validated - it's science that is being validated.

The wisdom of man is folly in the eyes of God. No human knowledge can approach His and no vain imaginations can refute His Truth.
