As I have pointed out many times, science is not a religion.

Science is not a DENOMINATION; however, a twisted devotion to unprovable and false science is the religion of a great many Darwinists.

Whether or not one is a Christian, Buddhist, Moslem, atheist, or whatever is completely independent of one's choice to pursue a career in science.

As I said earlier, a person's "religion" is the principles they employ in their life and that isn't necessarily what they claim is their religious affiliation.

Of note is the fact that the word "belief" does not appear anywhere within the definition of "science".

Very few aspects of Darwinism fall into the realm of actual science.

To the best of my knowledge, NOBODY on this thread has any opposition to science, our problem is with evil philosophies masquerading as science.

Precisely so, dear brother in Christ!

A prime example is Lothrop Stoddard who incited murderous hatred under the color of science, specifically anthropology and eugenics.

Claiming that science is not a ‘religion’ is a red-herring that gets thrown out to divert attention from the fact that ‘science’ is based on philosophical naturalism.

The fact that this renders it useless for opining on unobserved, assumed time-frames and unobserved, assumed events must be avoided at all costs.
