First, it is true that science is correct in those areas where facts have been established. We writers who believe in God and in His record of creation in the Bible, surely believe this and to charge us with not believing in science is biased, deceptive, and wrong. Second, some scientific matters have been infiltrated with atheistic and unscientific additions. Astronomy is accurate when it informs us that there are a certain number of planets and that the closest star is so many miles away. It is wrong and unscientific when it presumes to speak about the past and claims that the "Big Bank" is a fact and scientific. Third, not all scientists believe in evolution. Thousands so accept the Biblical account of creation in contrast to evolution. Fourth, dinosaur research is a matter of history rather than science. We don't have dinosaurs today; all we have are fossils, with no transitional forms. Both unbelieving, atheistic scientists and Christian scientists look at the evidence and arrive at different conclusions. Please don't go beyong the evidence! And please accurately reflect believing scientists; do not make unfounded charges.
