I'm extremely fascinated with Darwinism and how it can fit into Christianity. It drives me nuts how some people can be very narrowminded and think that Darwinism is wrong because it suggests God didn't create the world, but I disagree. I think if god is responsible for everything then he is responsible for evolution.
Could I get a career in that aspect of science ya think?

there is a shortage of people who think this way, so if u think in this direction it wud b better for u n for this world to get u as a life scientist
u can even go for evolutionary biology, exobiology, cosmology, aeronauticals and many other branches......
think about it!!!!!!!!
u sound marvellous...

God bless your heart. Many organizations are based on combining religion and science. For centuries, famous scientists have been trying to link God with science. This is nothing new. Galileo was a devout catholic. George Lemaitre, who proposed the "big bang theory" was a catholic priest. Christian Francis Collins is the director of the US Genome project.n So of course, there is a career in there somewhere.

You may become frustrated with such a career because 'beliefs' can not be proved (or disproved) by the scientific method. Perhaps choose one path or the other (without completely rejecting the opposite path) for a career while many members of the jury are still out. A scientific career would likely be much broader than a single issue (like evolution). Good luck.

You could try writing fiction or sci-fi stories.
You are definitely way off track. There is no God, God did not invent anything. Life is real, it evolved on planet Earth. As of this time we are not certain why life started on Earth, but someday we will know.
Darwinism only exist among lay people that know very little about biology or evolution. No biologist, zoologist, ecologist, etc etc would ever want to be labeled a Darwinist. After all, it is NOT a religion nor spirituality nor philosophy. The term is used as a negative connotation, by Christians/Creationist, to label all people that know that evolution is indeed factual.

u cant say that the darwinism is wrong, yes God is the creator and the destroyer but world was not by the magic as our holy epics say , darwin was very true about his view only the fittest exist i.e. survival of the fittest, u need very much to go through books related with evolution and i cant suggest 4 career in this way but all is on you

See if you can get funding to make an intelligent Christian museum. Good luck with that. The only source that says G-d created the world is Moses in Genesis -- no corroborating evidence anywhere.

I'd suggest that you consider looking into history and/or philosophy of science courses at your University. Science has a strong connection to religion through its intellectual heritage, and well educated scientists are eager to discuss these relationships. It's a sad commentary on our times when colleagues of mine avoid discussing religion at all for fear of the "can of worms" they'll be opening, when in fact, students benefit tremendously from a more clear picture of the historical development of *any* field of science.
Anyway, the discipline that really explores these sorts of connections is "History of Science," though philosophers of science often have much to say about the relationships between religion, religious ideology, and so on, and its effects (historical and current) on science. So I'd say both are worth looking into.
That all said... about the only jobs there are for historians of science and philosophers of science are academic jobs. ...not a lot of them working at NASA, though they could also benefit from one or two (IMHO). Anyway, this means that you'd need to seek a graduate degree to really make this the focus of your career. Academic jobs like this, however, are great! In my experience, institutions that employ historians or philosophers of science tend to be very *open* places, with vigorous, stimulating colleagues with which to work.
Good luck!!!

I don't know; Darwin Biologists will think that you are dabbling in theology, not science, and the Creationists & Intellegent Design Biologists will think that you sold out to Darwinism. I suppose that the end result is that no one would be happy with your research.
You might be able to get a career in Biology, and prusue theology as a hobby in your spare time (like on Y!A for example), but it might be hard to get paid by anyone for mixing the two.

Cool. I've thought this way for years and often discuss it with my family. They agree. Though when I posted an explanation of this on Yahoo answers, I got a bunch of thumbs-down. But good for you!

Write a book about it and hope it sells.
