Science Falsely So Called

1 Timothy 6:20 KJV
O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called:

I listened to a brief interview on the radio with two men who recently wrote a book attempting to reconcile the two supposedly opposing world views of science and spirituality. The man representing spirituality was not a Christian but someone involved in an eastern religion of "consciousness."

As the interview progressed the radio personality asked the scientist, a physicist, if he had come to believe in God. The scientist acknowledged that it is scientifically impossible to prove there is no God but then said that he definitely did not believe in the Biblical God because the Bible teaches too many things that scientists know are wrong.

I have discovered that too much of what science professes to know is not knowledge at all but theory.
They seem to begin all of their studies on the premise that the God of the Bible does not exist and try to find answers to their questions that do not include that God. They propose theories and study one another's theories. the science of today is not based upon knowing truth but knowing their own theories.

If there is a scientific fact that the Bible apparently contradicts, I would suggest that the problem is with their understanding of the Bible and not with the truths that exist either in science or the Bible.
Too many who begin by doubting the Bible have proposed what they believe are contradictions in the Bible itself. I don't pretend to have all of the answers to all of their proposed contradictions but I confidently proclaim that when God, who is, reveals all truth to us, every scientific contradiction (falsely so called) to the Bible will be perfectly reconciled.

I believe the Word of God. I believe God Himself, and not science falsely so called.
