That is a good summation for my beliefs. I see no need for any negation of science because of God, or negation of God because of science, even when they seem to take diametrically opposed stances.John Lennox said:For me, as a Christian believer, the beauty of the scientific laws only reinforces my faith in an intelligent, divine creative force at work. The more I understand science, the more I believe in God because of my wonder at the breadth, sophistication and integrity of his creation.
Did God create the world (and universe) 4,000 years ago as the bible may say? I have no issue there. Did the universe form in a big bang some dozen billion years ago? Sure looks like it.
After all, no where does it state God created a new universe, he may have made a 12.75 billion year old universe just to save some time and skip a few intermediate steps. That's his call, not mine to question.
Thy will be done.
