As far as your nagging feeling, despite what the fundamentalist say, it is possible for you to be a Christian and believe in science.
It's impossible to not believe in science though (to a degree). Even the people who wrote the Bible knew that things fall down and that fire is hot.

Darwin was raised Christian, but it ends there.
Not at all, he was Christian until his death. However, as Sir Francis Bacon said, the Bible is the Book of Gods Words, whereas Physics is the book of Gods works. The Bible tells us why, not how. Or so Bacon felt.
The Book of Job talks about blood being the life of the flesh, this is long before anyone knew scientifically that blood carried the nutrients all across the body. They talk about these sort of things all through the bible but alot of people just miss them out.

It's really hard to guess that blood has something to do with life...
Also, you are interpreting it a bit too much, they didn't really say anything much scientific.
Originally posted by Quiero MotaA good point. There might be lots of people who feared to speak out. I mean, there are in the US now still politicians that fear to speak out I am sure....
How the hell does the man who put forth a powerful argument that clashed with the story of Adam & Eve believe the Bible to his death? He probably just said that to avoid being killed by bible thumpers.

Ofcourse, cause you've actually read it.

Yea... but is it scientific if you believe "God must have done it" as the answer to everything?

It's probably talks about a whale.
I've debated with a creationist before who used "Behemoth" and "Leviathan" from Job as proof that dinosaurs and man coexisted...
To me, they're metaphors of God's greatness and power as compared to man. Basically God saying "I am Godzilla; you are Tokyo".
