Teaching Science and Faith
The teaching of science in the modern classroom focuses on naturalistic explanations with no consideration for the elements of design of a Creator or Sustainer. Science is limited to names, dates and discoveries, with little or no discussion of the worldview origins to modern science. The idea of a Creator or Designer, for which there is ample evidence, is not even presented as a school of thought.
So much for the free-thinking students being able to decide for themselves.
A classical, Christian education approach teaches science with consideration for God’s mind in the sciences. It combines theology and science, recognizing that modern science emerged from a classical, Christian worldview. Science is taught with a critical, skeptical, exploratory approach for truth and explanations.
This “faith seeking understanding” approach does not mean that we ignore subject we have trouble integrating with our faith but rather we must ask ourselves – is this because of a lack of knowledge or a wrong interpretation of the evidence? Classical, Christian education seeks to understand science thoroughly, teach students to scrutinize it well and hold each idea to account within the context of Christianity.
It is a disservice to students to be told that some ideas aren’t permitted to investigate. It is important for students to study all the facts and theories so they can make an informed decision for themselves.
True education should not tell a student what to think but equip them how to think.
