I do not assert that study of His Creation and the its behavior is necessarily the work of the Adversary.
I do point out that the very institutions used by intellectuals who reject faith were originally founded to promote study of God.
Science, or more precisely, the scientific method, is still possible when performed through faith in Christ. Just like any other endeavor, when it is pursued independent of Him, it becomes mired in illusion.
Pope John Paul II “In his encyclical Humani Generis (1950), my predecessor Pius XII had already stated that there was no opposition between evolution and the doctrine of the faith about man and his vocation, on condition that one did not lose sight of several indisputable points.”

“Today, almost half a century after the publication of the encyclical, new knowledge has led to the recognition of the theory of evolution as more than a hypothesis. It is indeed remarkable that this theory has been progressively accepted by researchers, following a series of discoveries in various fields of knowledge. The convergence, neither sought nor fabricated, of the results of work that was conducted independently is in itself a significant argument in favor of this theory.”
Science cannot be done when the scientist signs a pledge that the results will be consistent with the doctrine of a church.
Give a specific example of science becoming mired in illusion as a result of ignoring Christ. Are you suggesting that scientific results posted by Hindus or whatever are invalid? Can you provide an example where this has happened?
