Science requires many assumptions to work. A major one is an orderly universe. But an orderly universe doesn’t follow from an atheistic or pagan worldview. It does follow from the biblical teaching of a divine Lawmaker who is a God of order. Science first flourished in Medieval Europe thanks to the rise of the university and theologian–natural-philosopher class. The Reformation brought Christians back to objective understanding of Scripture, which was transferred to understanding nature. Later scientists like Francis Bacon were motivated by trying to recapture the knowledge they thought Adam had before his Fall. Many atheists have made false claims about Christians believing in a flat earth, opposing childbirth pain relief, and totally misrepresenting the Galileo controversy. Join us as we discuss the Christian origins of real science. ✍️ LINKS AND SHOW NOTES • Why does science work at all? – https://creation.com/whyscience [https://creation.com/whyscience] • The biblical roots of modern science – https://creation.com/roots [https://creation.com/roots] • The biblical basis for modern science – https://youtu.be/4xeG1_XSilM [https://youtu.be/4xeG1_XSilM] • Remembering the Christian roots of science – https://creation.com/christian-roots-of-science [https://creation.com/christian-roots-of-science] • Biblical history and the role of science – https://creation.com/biblical-history-and-role-of-science [https://creation.com/biblical-history-and-role-of-science] • Creationists don’t hate science – https://creation.com/creationists-dont-hate-science [https://creation.com/creationists-dont-hate-science] • Creationist contributions to science – https://creation.com/creationist-scientist-contributions [https://creation.com/creationist-scientist-contributions] • The creationist basis for modern science – https://creation.com/the-creationist-basis-for-modern-science [https://creation.com/the-creationist-basis-for-modern-science] • The name game: scientific ideas named after creationists – https://creation.com/science-name-creationists [https://creation.com/science-name-creationists] • The unexpected history of scientific naturalism – https://creation.com/review-science-without-god [https://creation.com/review-science-without-god] • Einstein’s Heroes—biblical creationists – https://creation.com/einsteins-heroes [https://creation.com/einsteins-heroes] • Quote: The Fall of Adam played a vital role in the development of Western science – https://creation.com/fall-of-adam-played-vital-role-in-development-of-western-science-harrison [https://creation.com/fall-of-adam-played-vital-role-in-development-of-western-science-harrison] • The Fall and the inspiration for science – https://creation.com/the-fall-inspiration-for-science [https://creation.com/the-fall-inspiration-for-science] 📚 HELPFUL RESOURCES • The Christian Roots of Science – https://creation.com/s/30-9-625 [https://creation.com/s/30-9-625] • How Christianity Changed the World – https://creation.com/s/10-2-685 [https://creation.com/s/10-2-685] • In Six Days: Why 50 scientists choose to believe in creation – https://creation.com/s/10-2-117 [https://creation.com/s/10-2-117] • Busting Myths: 30 Ph.D. scientists who believe the Bible and its account of origins – https://creation.com/s/10-2-605 [https://creation.com/s/10-2-605] • Creation Magazine – https://creation.com/creation-magazine [https://creation.com/creation-magazine] 💙 SOCIAL MEDIA ► Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/creationministries [https://www.facebook.com/creationministries] ► TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@creationministries [https://www.tiktok.com/@creationministries] ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/creationministries [https://www.instagram.com/creationministries] ► X / Twitter: https://twitter.com/creationnews [https://twitter.com/creationnews] ► eNewsletter: https://creation.com/infobytes [https://creation.com/infobytes] 📅 EVENTS We present at hundreds of events around the world each year.
