The above video looks at the examples of several renowned scientists who made important scientific contributions and still continued to hold strong to their faith, including Nicolaus Copernicus, Isaac Newton, Johannes Kepler, Gregor Mendel, Galileo Galilei, Michael Faraday, and George Washington Carver. It also includes some excellent quotes on science and faith from these famous scientists<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, the video concludes that &#8220;modern science as we know it today was founded and has flourished within a Christian worldview. The claim that Christianity is an enemy to science is a mistake or a lie.&#8221; Rather than an enemy of faith, science can be used for both the benefit on mankind and the glory of God. <\/p>\n<p><!-- AddThis Button BEGIN --><\/p>\n<div class=\"addthis_toolbox addthis_default_style\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.addthis.com\/bookmark.php?v=250&amp;pub=biologos\" class=\"addthis_button_compact\">Share<\/a><span class=\"addthis_separator\">|<\/span><a href=\"editor-content.html?cs=utf-8\" class=\"addthis_button_facebook\"><\/a><a href=\"editor-content.html?cs=utf-8\" class=\"addthis_button_myspace\"><\/a><a href=\"editor-content.html?cs=utf-8\" class=\"addthis_button_google\"><\/a><a href=\"editor-content.html?cs=utf-8\" class=\"addthis_button_twitter\"><\/a><\/div>\n<p><!-- AddThis Button END --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Real Science.
