Sincere apologies, Jann, and I think you're right about the split
occurring around Galileo's time. Maybe up until then, theologians were
pretty good at using the current world-view to state their views.
Probably Galileo's findings changed that world-view, and theology didn't
keep up. I hope we can avoid that error this time around.<br><br>
Thanks for your insights.<br><br>

I've assumed that the great creation stories of the world WERE the
scientific world view at the time they were formulated and that science

Guess it wasn't wordy enough to get a response.<br>

Blessings to all,<br>
