I heard a talk recently by Richard Palmer, who is a God-believing scientist (he’s a Professor of Experimental Physics at Birmingham University), on whether there is a conflict between science and the Bible. I enjoyed the talk a great deal, so thought I’d share some of the key arguments…most of which I agree with! It’s important to recognise that a conventional understanding of science does create conflict with a simple reading of the Bible. However, the areas where science and the Bible seem to contradict can be narrowed greatly with some reasonable thought!
