Been that way since Marx and Engels. They jumped on Darwin to try to kill God. If evolution exists, God can’t. Or so I’m told by the libs at work.
It is a personal choice to believe that scientific descriptions of the physical world negate the existence of God. If you believe that the physical universe and the Kingdom of Heaven are separate entities, then there should be no problem at all with studying science/the scientific method and being faithful.
Conversely, if you believe that the physical universe and the Kingdom of Heaven are the same, then no amount of trying to discredit science is going to help your faith.
