Carl Sagan said it best:
"Science is more than a body of knowledge. It is a way of thinking; a way of skeptically interrogating the universe with a fine understanding of human fallibility."
Science is NOT "more than a body of knowledge".....it is an ever changing body of knowledge, based on a set "way of thinking". ("There cannot be a Creator....intelligent design cannot be demonstrated in anything.")
Tomorrow's new discovery can quash a century of misinterpretation of the "evidence". Oops. ![](http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-basic/shy.gif)
"Skeptically interrogating the Universe" shouldn't come with arrogance, based on their track record of continually moving the goal posts and stating assumption as fact.
The "fine understanding of human fallibility" includes an admission that today's truth could be thrown out with tomorrow's garbage because of that very annoying fallibility. ![](http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-basic/dry.gif)
In order to "believe in" something, you first have to assume that it is true. Science cannot disprove the existence of a Creator, any more than I can prove him to someone who doesn't want to believe in him.
That gives us two belief systems....take your pick.
And yet it saves lives with vaccinations, transplants and blood transfusions.
I am suspicious of vaccinations as they do not work like naturally acquired immunity does. Natural immunity requires no boosters. The antibodies stay in the bloodstream for life.
It seems like the more vaccinations they come up with, the more life-threatening illnesses there are to treat.
Transplants can be of benefit, but stem cell repair of your own organs would be a better use of science than suppressing the body's natural immune response to someone else's body parts. Blood transfusions are not as safe they are reported to be. Bloodless medicine is now the choice for many informed doctors.
And look, that computer you're using!
The science of bio-mimetics demonstrates that scientists can mimic the design of many things in nature but they rarely come up with anything "new" that has popped out of their own heads.
That thing inside our skull is a super computer, with carefully designed components that allow us to see, hear, taste, touch and smell. It can calibrate distance, respond to infection with elevated body temperature, calculate thousands of every day activities without any conscious effort on our part. We couldn't even eat without our hand being able to locate our mouth.
Our sense of balance is in our ears, so without it functioning as it was designed, we couldn't even stay upright.
Why do we sleep? Why do we dream? How can science explain even the simple things? The natural laws of the body that tell us to eat, drink, eliminate, procreate, and rest.....that all just happened by undirected chance...did it?

Science seems to work to me.
Science in the hands of man is in its infancy compared to the wisdom of the Creator who has existed longer than anything or anyone.
