MysitcCat you make a lot of sense. Yes, I was pretty much talking about the creation process. I guess with everything that's been posted, I guess I still see a little conflict between science and religion (as far as the book of Genesis goes). It's just the way the creation was described. I think what God has done is a miracle of course, but at that the same time I simply go with what works.
DSTCHAOS, yep that's true. With Galileo, he clearly distinguished the role of religion from the role of science. To him religion was the service of God and the salvation of souls, whereas science was the source of exact observations and demonstrated truths.
MysticCat you're right though. If the Bible had ever been shown to be a rich source of scientific answers and understanding, I think we would be mining it daily for cosmic discovery. Scientists and religious experts tend to disagree on some issues, and more likely than not, always will. I guess the creation/beginning will always be a mystery to religious experts and scientists, but the science itself is pretty simple, it's just well organized common sense to me.
