Has Science Eliminated GOD?

January 22, 2013 by Nelis Ebersohn and Jason Dennett

In this teaching, I investigate the all important question: “Has Science Eliminated the Need for God?”  In a culture that is growing increasingly more committed to materialistic naturalism, and to a strong devotion to “scientism”, this is an extremely important issue to know how to address with your colleagues and friends when discussing the Christian Worldview.

Here are 5 reasons why science has not eliminated the need for God:

  1. The “Founding Fathers” of science were mostly Theists or Deists.
  2. 95% of science has nothing to do with Christianities truth claims.
  3. 5% of science does intersect with our worldview and is tremendously supportive of belief in God.
  4. ‘Scientism’ is a logically self-defeating/self-contradictory idea
  5. There are many realities that we believe in that are non-physical and outside the realm of scientific verification (morality, mathematics, logic, love, etc…)

    You’re saying there’s no conflict at all? If 95% of science doesn’t touch Christian teachings and 5% supports Christian teachings, then the whole dispute is just a misunderstanding!

    On the other hand, maybe you don’t really understand science, or maybe you’ve got an idea in your mind about what science is, and your idea is very different from what 95% of scientists think. My guess is that you’re not really engaging your mind and considering the real issues here.

Unity Statement

In essentials unity, in nonessentials liberty, in all things charity. The Christian Apologetics Alliance (CAA) is united in our Statement of Faith. The CAA does not, as an organization, have positions on many of the doctrinal or theological debates that take place within the church. Our primary concern is to promote the gracious, rational defense of the central claims of Christianity and the critique of opposing systems of thought. The CAA joyfully welcomes Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, and diverse Protestant believers, and we are committed to treating all these traditions with respect in our community.
