"Establishing what those laws are is the task of science. Anyone who can take high school chemistry and physics and not be awed by these laws is not paying attention."

Uh, no.

Establishing what those laws are was the gift of God.

"It depends what you mean by traditional interpretation. I believe everything in the Bible, but not as literally as some."

Tell me something you think has been disproved by 'science' and I will explain why it was not.

Let's start with the once commonly accepted idea that maggots spontaneously generated from rotten meat.

Maybe I stated that wrong. God established the laws. Scientists discover them.

Nothing has been disproved by science. That isn't what I said. You can't go back in time and prove that something didn't happen literally the way it is described in the Bible. When something contradicts common sense, as a snake talking for instance, you're in the realm of a different kind of truth.
