Context: "Science isn’t asking questions about the shape of the earth."
Why bother? Galileo answered that question in 1609.
For a while there was talk of burning Galileo at the stake for heresy.
But people soon realized the difference between religion and science:
Science makes reliable predictions, Religion doesn't.
In the News
Science, like theology, requires belief. The key difference: Science confines itself to observable phenomena which can be tested. Theology is free to assert any combination of words whatever.
"All the mistakes you guys made, those were mine, I did those." —God
