In the 16th Century All Scientists Held a Christian Worldview But by the Late 20th Century That Had Been Rejected

A timeline of key scientific discoveries from the 16th to the 21st century highlights the early role of the Christian worldview in the Scientific Revolution. Influential founding figures like Newton, Faraday, and Maxwell linked their faith to their scientific contributions. Yet a decline in Christian influence among later scientists is noted.

Exploring the Foundations of the Scientific Revolution

The Scientific Revolution was significantly influenced by Christian philosophers and scientists, particularly Francis Bacon, who emphasized empirical methods and a rational Creator. The integration of faith and reason laid the foundational principles of modern science. The laws of the physical universe never change and are discoverable using the scientific method.

La Tierra hace algo insólito mientras gira: retuerce el espacio-tiempo, como predijo Einstein hace más de un siglo

La Tierra no solo completa una vuelta sobre sí misma cada día. Mientras rota, altera levemente el espacio-tiempo, un comportamiento anticipado por Albert Einstein que un satélite acaba de constatar con un rigor inédito.

Astronomers May Have Found Supernova Remnant near Milky Way’s Central Black Hole

This composite image contains X-rays from Chandra and XMM-Newton missions (shown in blue) as well as radio data from the MeerKAT telescope (shown in red) in South Africa. These have been combined with an optical image from the Pan-STARRS telescopes in Hawai’i (red, green, and blue).

Using NASA’s Chandra X-ray Observatory and ESA’s XMM-Newton satellite, astronomers identified a possible remnant of ancient stellar explosion just a few dozen light-years from Sagittarius A*, a supermassive black hole at the center of our Milky Way Galaxy.

True Science and Science Falsely So-Called

I discuss the distinction between operational science, which relies on repeatable experiments, and historical science, particularly cosmology. While acknowledging the contributions of renowned scientists, I argue that cosmology lacks the capacity for experimental verification and is thus not true science, but science falsely so-called.
