Can you be a scientist and a Christian? Science and Religion in Schools Project - Unit 1bb

Can you be a scientist and a Christian? I can “Some years before entering college to study science I had become a Christian and was fully convinced of the truth of basic Christian beliefs. How was I to reconcile my Christian convictions with science?” Prof. George Kinoti “ Science and the Bible give us two quite different kinds of knowledge, or two models of the world, both of which are essential to our understanding of it. Many years of studying and teaching science have confirmed my initial conviction that we need both scientific and Biblical understanding of ourselves and our world. “

“I am both a scientist and a Christian and it has always been very important to me that the scientific and religious components of my life should fit together as two parts of a larger whole. Many similarities exist in the way we think about science and religion; they are both searching for objective truth – truth about nature and truth about God.” Sir John Houghton CBE, FRS Atmospheric physicist, and advisor to government on environmental pollution Can you be a scientist and a Christian? I can

“For many years I have believed that God is the great designer behind all nature. I made a commitment to Christ as my personal Saviour while a student at Oxford University. All my studies since then have confirmed my faith. I regard the Bible as my principal source of authority.” Professor Sir Ghillean Prance FRS Director, Royal Botanic gardens Kew Can you be a scientist and a Christian? I can

“I became a Christian in the year before I took science A’ Levels. My response to the explanation that Christ had taken upon himself the sins of the world, including my own, was a logical decision, based upon evidence in exactly the same way as I was being trained to gather scientific evidence and draw conclusions from facts and experiments.” Professor R.J.Berry FRSE Professor of Genetics at University college London. Can you be a scientist and a Christian? I can

I became a Christian at the beginning of my Cambridge career, when I gave my life to Christ after hearing a freshers' sermon from the Revd John Collins. My interest in the relationship between science and faith has grown since that time, especially as I have responded to the questioning of many people who seem to believe that there is a conflict between the two. I have never felt that, but rather I have always seen science as enhancing my appreciation of the glory of God as revealed in the created world which science seeks to understand. Revd Dr Rodney Holder has a Cambridge first degree and an Oxford D.Phil in astrophysics Can you be a scientist and a Christian? I can

‘ “Taste and see that the Lord is good.”… “Seek and you shall find.”…The experimental approach is basic to Christianity.’ Professor Andrew Miller (Molecular Biologist) Principal and Vice-Chancellor University of Stirling Can you be a scientist and a Christian? I can

“I actually do not believe that there are any collisions between what I believe as a Christian, and what I know and have learned about as a scientist. I think there's a broad perception that that's the case, and that’s what scares many scientists away from a serious consideration of faith. But, unless one chooses to make an absolutely literal interpretation of the book of Genesis and the story of creation, other than that I am not aware of any reasons why one cannot be a completely dedicated person of faith who believes that God inspired the writings in the Bible, and also be a rigorous, intellectually completely honest scientist, who does not accept things about the natural world until they're proven.” Dr Francis Collins, director of the National Human Genome Research InstituteGenome Can you be a scientist and a Christian? I can

“I became a Christian at the end of my second year as a physics undergraduate. I had to face the inevitable questions about how could I be both a Christian and a science student. 40 years later I remain convinced that science and Christian faith are not enemies but allies.” Michael Poole, Visiting research fellow at King’s College London.
