There seems to be a lot of discussion about Religion and Science recently, and I wanted to throw my 2 cents in the ring. I am Christian, but I believe that science doesn't conflict with my religion. I also believe the extreme views on either side of this issue is where the problem is.
Evolution and the Genesis creation - The story of creation in the book of Genesis declares that everything was created in seven days. This is a story to help us understand how the world came to be, but shouldn't be read literally. Our concept of time has no meaning to God. I think 7 days is simpler than 15 billion years for a story.
I am reading a book called What's So Great About Christianity, and the author goes into depth about these issues. I agree with about everything he discusses, and it is a very interesting book.
I'll post more about this later.
