"Thus to me the real danger resides in the unseen realm of ideas, conceptions, presuppositions, etc.
Though entirely unseen, ideas like evolution are like slippery slopes that can cause one to unwittingly fall away from God rather than find Him.
Ideas do indeed have consequences." FRiend, there are a thousand ways (or a thousand times a thousand ways) to "fall away from God", of which scientific theories like evolution are only one.
Indeed, the act of "finding God" is first and foremost an act of will and knowledge: you need both how and where to look.
The closest analogies I've ever seen are these -- how long does it take you to see the large angels in this picture?

So science is just one more picture through which we must look to find what we seek.
