: Look. I believe in God. I also believe in science. I believe that God created everything in the universe. He made it a mystery so we (humans) have something to learn. We seek knowledge, and He made enough of it so we can try to learn all we can.

: Some of you don't believe inthe Big Bang, but I do. In the Bible it says that God created everything in 6 days. But scientists say the Big Bang lasted a long time (definetly more than 6 days!). But I think that God did do it in 6 days, but I think each day was a certain period of years. : God and science can get along, but God overules it. He did create the universe, but He did it in a way we can study and learn about it.

: I may be only 13, but I have my beliefs. And my beliefs tell me that God and science can live in harmony. But as I like to say, "We can search and find all the knowledge we can, but know matter how far we go, there will always be one more bit of knowledge we don't know, and to me, that is where God overpowers science.

: To sum it up, God did create our universe, but he used science so we could understand it.

Wes:

It's good to hear from someone who I can agree with. But lets face it, honest doubts can be a good thing. And for those who are ernestly seeking an accomodation of God and Science, I think they will find it; God is faithful. When God comes to answer those doubts there can be a real deepening of faith.

Take a look at some of my earlier postings. In many of them I have attempted to get people to consider visiting Hugh Ross' "Reasons to Believe" homepage. This guy's got a Ph.D in Astrophysics from one of the most respected university in the world (University of Toronto). He has managed to help me reconcile issues of science and theology without too much pain.
