The Savior of Science-The Faithfulness of God means the Reliability of Legitimate Science post 1
God’s faithful Word means the reliability of science’s laws
Your religion determines your view of reality; it affects everything about your world & how you see it. Whether we create our own from our own perspective or that religious perspective is given to us by someone else, we end up shaping our reality around it because we have decided it is the reality behind our reality, so to speak.
Stanley Jaki’s Thought
Science Was Born of Christianity
“Exact Science” vs “More or Less” Philosophy – Jaki
Jaki (click link below for Jaki book, The Savior of Science) was a relentless student of the history of science, and he analyzed just about every culture in history that has attempted science. His unique contribution to the history of science is his detailed explanation as to why “modern science” developed in Western, Christian Europe as opposed to anywhere else. No matter the genius of their scientists, every other culture’s scientific development was “stillborn.” And Jaki discovered a religio-cultural explanation for that historical fact.

Science & Creation 2-Exact Science
Science Was Born of Christianity
Galileo, 1st Modern Scientist . . . Really!
Father Stanley Jaki defined exact science this way: “Exact science is the quantitative study of the quantitative aspects of objects in motion.” Click link above to get Stacey Trasancos’ book, Science was Born of Christianity: The Teaching of Fr. Stanley Jaki. This definition clearly distinguishes modern science from speculative philosophy, theology, and reasoned discourse. It is also an important factor in distinguishing modern science from ancient science, something Jaki studied exhaustively.
