A Scientist���s Answers May Reflect His Worldview More than Science

In this short video from Ligonier, Stephen Meyer demonstrates not only some evidence for a beginning of the universe, but also how a scientist���s worldview and biases can direct and constrain his findings, distorting what he considers to be ���scientific������sometimes without his even realizing it. Even a scientist as great as Einstein.



Of course, one may easily say, ���Christian scientists will have the same problem!��� That���s fair. This is why you must always consider carefully whether a scientist is making a fair interpretation of the evidence at hand���i.e., that the evidence actually points to his conclusion���and that one of his interpretive principles isn���t to rule out a particular conclusion that falls outside his worldview, prior to and regardless of the evidence (as Einstein did).
