views regarding a supernatural creator are, by their very nature, claims of religious faith, and so not within the scope or abilities of science

Except that origins determine consequences. The consequences of a system of thought that vigorously opposes the reality of God is neither scientific nor objective.

If a scientist wants to admit that he does not kow about God that is one thing. To say that God has no part in our understanding of the universe is quite another.

SCIENCE doesn't really challenge the existence of God, anymore than a book on the rules of chess challenges the existence of people.
for people who believe in God, the laws of evolution were determined by God.
if God decided to create the laws of evolution, why challenge Him on it?
