Louis Pasteur was an important scientist and an ardent Christian. He's just one example. Isaac Newton was a theologian.

Faith and science have co-existed for centuries. However, the further along the path of knowledge we go, the more the idea of God becomes obsolete.

I always viewed the history of science as "understanding God's universe." Science has now become more simply "understanding the universe."
