Three Kinds of Science
Roth, AA. 1995.  Origins-GRI 22(2):55-57. CELD ID 2819

Abstract
A number of years ago I was reading the campus newspaper at a large university where I was a graduate student. My attention was focused on a book review - definitely no ordinary book review! Several professors had been contacted to comment on the book and some of the comments were not too complimentary. The problem was that this was an unconventional biology textbook which favored creation instead of evolution. One comment was to the effect that science could not be fitted into the impossibly narrow confines of the biblical account of beginnings. This statement appeared significant to me, because it implied that science was broader and more open than the defined conclusions of Scripture. A broader approach would have a greater potential of finding truth.
