Doing science is not inherently incompatible with religious faith.

I don't use scientific data as a foundation for believing in God - I use it as an enrichment of my knowledge of God.

If I have a fundamental belief that the universe is created by God, then I also come to the belief that that universe reflects God, it gives me some knowledge of Him. Obviously, therefore, the more I know of the universe is, the more enriched my limited knowledge of God is.

Doing science is not inherently incompatible with religious faith.

Scientists in general tend to have what I would call a bit of hubris that the public do not necessarily understand. So scientists some times make claims that are misunderstood by the public.

There are dimensions to me that are not just the thinking person, but the person who is much richer, the person who has other emotional experiences, psychological experiences, these experiences also enrich me.

I think today the church faces a very real challenge in not repeating the errors of the past, in sort of a stand off, a fear of science.
