I know that Charles Colson's "Breakpoint" commentaries may not be
appreciated here (he generally trumpets Intelligent Design, and refers
often to Phillip Johnson), but of interest today is his promoting of the
ASA:
Two Heavenly Subjects - Linking Science and Faith
...Christians are allegedly too closed-minded to embrace science, and
scientists are far too smart to become Christians.
That false impression deters some scientists from seriously considering
the Christian faith, and it discourages many Christians from entering
scientific professions. It also discourages Christians who are scientists
from being vocal about their faith.
If you have this kind of intellectual conflict, you can advance to "higher
ground" this summer. Colorado Christian University will host hundreds of
scientifically knowledgeable Christians the last weekend of July at the
American Scientific Affiliation's annual meeting. Plenary sessions will
orbit around astronomy and exalt God as Creator.
