For that
matter, Dei Filius asserted that God is the «Lord
of the Sciences,» that
faith and reason have distinct yet mutually supportive objects and ends, and that the «assent
of faith is by no means a
blind movement
of the mind.»
Scientific predictions are only as good as the science behind them, if you put junk data in you get junk results, hardly scientific at all, it's a bogus belief system that calls itself science and like all such systems it requires ardent
blind followers to keep the fires
of the
faith burning without ever questioning anything no
matter how utterly absurd.
