فنحن نؤمن بالخير ونحارب الشرِّ؛ لأن هذا
صادر عن عقيدة راسخة أساسها الدين، ونحن لا نتقبل جدلًا في إيماننا هذا، لا من علماء
الفلك، ولا من غيرهم، ولا يعنينا في هذا أمر النظريات أو الحقائق العلمية، بل إننا نحيا ونموت مؤمنين متمسّكين بعقيدتنا، ندافع عن الخير، وعن الفضيلة، وعن العدل، ونحارب الشر والرذيلة والظلم، سواء أكانت الأرض هي التي تدور حول الشمس، أو الشمس هي التي تدور حول الأرض، وسواء أكانت الأجسام تتبع في سقوطها آراء أرسطو، أو مذهب .غاليلي

إن الذي حل النزاع في علم الفلك والإجرام السماوية لم تكن النصوص، وإنما آيات الله في الآفاق والأنفس، لأن النصوص لا تبحث علم الفلك، وإنما تلفت نظر الإنسان إلى مغزى هذا الكون المليء بالأسرار الذي ينبغي أن يصل هو في بحثه في الفلك وكذا سائر العلوم.

Science and religion both make claims about the fundamental workings of the universe. Although these claims are not a priori incompatible (we could imagine being brought to religious belief through scientific investigation), I will argue that in practice they diverge. If we believe that the methods of science can be used to discriminate between fundamental pictures of reality, we are led to a strictly materialist conception of the universe. While the details of modern cosmology are not a necessary part of this argument, they provide interesting clues as to how an ultimate picture may be constructed.

One increasingly hears rumors of a reconciliation between science and religion. In major news magazines as well as at academic conferences, the claim is made that that belief in the success of science in describing the workings of the world is no longer thought to be in conflict with faith in God. I would like to argue against this trend, in favor of a more old-fashioned point of view that is still more characteristic of most scientists, who tend to disbelieve in any religious component to the workings of the universe.

Toward the end of his book, Miller explains his need to unite science and religion: science does not explain the meaning and purpose of life. That may be, but why should we assume religion explains such things any better? Just because religion attempts to answer such questions does not mean its answers are correct. And such answers never seem to achieve any consensus. What is the meaning of life? Your answer is as good as mine--or just as bad.

Science could potentially do a better job explaining the meaning of life if scientists devise experiments that can weed out the best answers from the worst. The principle difference between religion and science is as follows: the religious make stuff up to explain what they don't understand. Scientists do the same, but scientists run their ideas through a very rigorous filter that consists of logic, experimentation and peer review. Such a filter eliminates the worst ideas and preserves the best.
So if a scientist answers the question, "What is the meaning of life," his answer, at the very worst, is no less valid than an answer that comes from the highest witchdoctor or priest.

BioLogos claims there is no conflict between the theory of evolution and creationism. Huh? Here is where the creationists seem to have the intellectual advantage: they at least see the conflict. Actually, it is not that BioLogos isn't aware of the conflict, but rather, it has come up with the answer to the long-standing conflict between Darwinism and creationism: simply pretend there is no conflict.

Thanks to meetings and discussions with experts in the natural sciences, with physicists and biologists as well as with historians, I have learned to appreciate the importance of those other branches of knowledge which involve the scientific disciplines; these are likewise capable of attaining the truth from different perspectives. The splendor of the truth–Veritatis Splendor–constantly needs to accompany them, enabling people to meet, to exchange ideas, and to enrich one another.
