Presuming a bit much there aren't ya? Why do you suggest people of faith are "scientifically illiterate"? Is that what you are suggesting?

I could also say, in the same tone of 'voice', "Those who are illiterate in matters of faith never read anything and never want to understand ..."

Pretty broad brush there, paintin' a rather broad streak, me thinks!

In my, and I think it's safe to say, Biblical Christian worldview paradigm we give a lot of credit to science, and see science and scientific endeavors as a vital tool God has given us to use to explore the wonders and mysteries of 'the creation' - and solve them. In fact, I believe God wants and expects us, human beings, to use science in our role and purpose for being. An huge amount of science has been, and is being, done by Christians and people of other faith traditions.

Would you disagree, or agree?
