MaryKaye, you just repeated my question. Do you have an example?

Science does not directly deal to prove or disprove any religious issues. However, as the good things are written in the religious books, many times, some scientific proofs appear to be religiously true. If someone wants to co-relate a specific religion with these scientific proofs, then he or she should know it clearly that most of the things of most of the religions are the same. If someone says that science proved telling lie is bad, so, it proved Christianity then at the same time, it also proved all other religions also.

Prophets are not scientist that they would have to prove something that they believe and preach. Religions are the packages of some beliefs that the followers admit and are obliged to follow. But science is not any belief but truths based on clear evidences to human being. It does not mean that religions are fake or fabricated. Obviously, religions are the core of all sciences but we can’t always think upto that level of understanding and become confused about the religions and make chaos and sufferings.

Science should not be used to explain religions anymore than religions should try to explain science. They are the antithesis to each other.

Biblical scolars/Christian scientists are making bold claims without applying strict enough guidelines. Many scientists from both sides have often stopped during the investigation when they have reach a conclusion that they desire. This isn't science, but it is pseudo-science which makes no sense what so ever.

Interestingly enough both groups can reach the same conclusion (a theory)but the Christians are willing to accept false logic as truth when they are investigating what they decide is a Christian given.

There have been some interesting programs on the Discovery channel and the History channel where they have followed searches for answers about Christian theology and Christian myth and they always end in a question. What do you believe?

How about that creation couldn't have just spontaneously started.. Would that be evidence? Here is the evidence I don't know if you will read it or not..

Chirality and life

Nearly all biological polymers must be homochiral (all its component monomers having the same handedness. Another term used is optically pure or 100 % optically active) to function. All amino acids in proteins are ‘left-handed’, while all sugars in DNA and RNA, and in the metabolic pathways, are ‘right-handed’.

A 50/50 mixture of left- and right-handed forms is called a racemate or racemic mixture. Racemic polypeptides could not form the specific shapes required for enzymes, because they would have the side chains sticking out randomly. Also, a wrong-handed amino acid disrupts the stabilizing α-helix in proteins. DNA could not be stabilised in a helix if even a single wrong-handed monomer were present, so it could not form long chains. This means it could not store much information, so it could not support life. Ordinary chemistry produces racemates

A well-regarded organic chemistry textbook states a universal chemical rule in bold type:

‘Synthesis of chiral compounds from achiral reagents always yields the racemic modification.’ and ‘Optically inactive reagents yield optically inactive products.’3

This is a consequence of the Laws of Thermodynamics. The left and right handed forms have identical free energy (G), so the free energy difference (ΔG) is zero. The equilibrium constant for any reaction (K) is the equilibrium ratio of the concentration of products to reactants. The relationship between these quantities at any Kelvin temperature (T) is given by the standard equation:

K = exp (–ΔG/RT)

where R is the universal gas constant (= Avogadro’s number x Boltzmann’s constant k) = 8.314 J/K.mol.

For the reaction of changing left-handed to right-handed amino acids (L → R), or the reverse (R → L), ΔG = 0, so K = 1. That is, the reaction reaches equilibrium when the concentrations of R and L are equal; that is, a racemate is produced. This explains the textbook rule above.
Separating the left hand from the right a ready-made homochiral substance from a living organism is required.
However, this does not solve the mystery of where the optical activity in living organisms came from in the first place. A recent world conference on ‘The Origin of Homochirality and Life’ made it clear that the origin of this handedness is a complete mystery to evolutionists.4 The probability of forming one homochiral polymer of N monomers by chance = 2–N. For a small protein of 100 amino acids, this probability = 2–100 = 10–30. Note, this is the probability of any homochiral polypeptide. The probability of forming a functional homochiral polymer is much lower, since a precise amino acid sequence is required in many places. Of course, many homochiral polymers are required for life, so the probabilities must be compounded. Chance is thus not an option.
What is the only realistic explanation. This was done by an intelligence, an intelligence Christians call God....
But what do I know I'm just a stupid Christian. I have just studied the work of organic chemists on the subject I never would have thought of this on my own. Still I wouldn't call it proof but it is STRONG evidence.... Jim

in 2005 they said something positve:
"Recently, scientists were told what devout Christians have believed all along - that appealing for help from the Almighty really might work. DR Peter Fenwick, a Neuropsychiatrist from the Institute of Psychiatry, is an expert on workings of the brain that appear to fall outside conventional understanding. He presented his latest findings to the Festival of Science, taking place this week at the University of Salford."

Science has never claimed to prove Christianity. There have been theories and discoveries that discredit Christianity. The people that say that science can prove Christianity are mostly Christians that are trying to rationalize scientific theories that go against the fundamental teachings of Christianity.

It hasn't. Science has shown that some of the places and people mentioned in the christer cultists bible were real, but that doesn't prove christinanity, just proves the writers new how to pull off a good scam.

science is how the things are created
christianity is why the things are created

in one of the messages i heard, there is one about evolution.. ever wondered why there are some plants that looks like animals, or why some animals are green? it is becasue God created them using a standard.. and varies slightly from one another, thus creating a wide variety of species.. all lowly animals will surely die off (monkeys? since human already existed) if evolution really take place, cause the environment does not need monkeys anymore. human replaced the role.

if you happened to be a doctor medical field, cells is a mysterious and wonderful thing that only God can create

in social science, (psychology) a group of elite(psychologist) gather together to discuss man's best way of life.. guess what? it is the gold rule of SOTM in matthews XD

Here's the proof:

Creationists call science is a pack of lies.
Creationists call themselves Christians.
Creationist lie.

Therefore Christianity is a science.

Science has disproved religion in general. Yeah, Jesus walked on water... in the winter when it was frozen over.

Science has prove Christinaity many times. Each time they set out to disprove the Bible or Christinaity they have failed to do so. Ergo they proved Christinaity and the Bible to be real.
