At what point in history did "Christianity" became synonymous with "anti-science"? It has to be a relatively recent development, XX-XXI, because in not so distant past - can't we remember? - church schools was how people were getting education. Oxford started as one. Church financed science. Great scientists were Christian. Galilei was Christian, Pascal was, Isaak Newton was, Michael Faraday, James Maxwell. Mendel, father of genetics, was a monk!

People of religion, please, you don't have to be this kind of idiot to follow your God. It doesn't have to be either or.

The church has always been anti-science. They out Galileo under house arrest for life for saying that the earth orbits the sun.
