Of course science cannot prove the lack of a creator; science can not prove anything about the supernatural by definition.

But, in the same way that religion should not be used to calculate escape velocity or to determine the composition of our genes, science should not be used to dictate our morals nor our spiritual beliefs. They are two very different things.

My point of removing religion from the classroom is to protect religion as much as it is to protect science.

Hey Mike -
I’ll have to check that special out. I don’t totally agree with you. While I grant you that intelligent design isn’t science, the notion that science can prove the lack of a creator is laughable. 6000 years, 13 billion years, whatever. I believe God is at work. Francis Collins book, “Language of God” is a good one to sit down with… Cheers!
