Science has a non-negotiable stance of methodological materialism. This means no hidden forces, no aid from God, angels, and demons. No magic. No miracles. Wow. If you're religious that sounds bad; I don't think it is. If you are LDS, then you believe in laws and regularities, and it's in this domain that science does its work.
Some people think God had to make every little thing, but which programmer is greater? The one who can program every single game ever created or a programmer who can write a program that creates all the video games. That, for me, is why God is not diminished if he's created a universe whereby things proceed along from the beginning to the end.
Science is an ethic that promotes a set of best practices that have been shown to explicate the world using a bunch of tools that have worked so far...Scientists believe there's some reality we are trying to capture, and we want to find that reality...I believe science is the most powerful method ever invented for finding truth about the material world.
We must keep in mind that we are presumptuous if we consider our interpretations of scripture to have the same author as scripture itself. Nobody is an infallible interpreter, and we must always stand ready to reconsider our interpretations in light of new information...We must not let our interpretations stand in the place of scripture's authority and thus risk misrepresenting God's revelation.
Too often we take our black-and-white thinking and we do a child's version of hypothesis testing: we find a simple anomaly and throw out that theory. We don't do that in science. If we find an anomaly, we check our instruments. We make sure they are working right. We start to check the way we thought about things, because if something should have worked and it doesn't, we need to understand why. It might not be that the hypothesis needed rejecting. It means we may need to do more refinement and more nuance, and really try to see what's going on.
