does god really want theists using science to make faith a religious relic of the past?

Oh, I dunno: but considering how Conservative Christian Dr. Buzz Aldrin got his Ph.D at MIT via the docking process used in Gemini then Apollo: soon to be used in Artemis you tell me, OP.
And not just how he was 2nd Man on the Moon. A quote by him about Apollo:
It is a magnificent testimony to the evolution of humankind
As he did then, so with those who follow him to the Moon he looks to the future . Can you say the same, whilst using the developments by Alan Turing - the Digital Computer - an Atheist…?!
The main computer he & fellow Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong & Michael Collins used in their Command Module had just 32K of RAM, so you know they’ll cram as much memory - gigabytes - as possible in Orion’s computers. I bet you have a fair few gigabytes of RAM in yours, OP: or do you have just 8Mb in a 486 setup with a 56K/sec dialup connection?
You know what you’ll be admitting if your answer is anything other than Yes: you have science to thank if your answer is No, OP.
Your Fail… er, I mean Faith is a religious relic of the past: the distant past, considering how science has made things all for the better since then.

A prime example being the one who invented the very thing we’re using today: HTML.
Sir Tim Berners-Lee could have copyrighted, trademarked, licenced etc up the wazoo his invention, potentially becoming the world’s first trillionaire . But no. He gave away his invention - the Internet as we know it today: the World Wide Web - for free. ‘This Is For Everyone’ as shown via the ‘Pixel’ displays - also as a Tweet - in the audience within the stadium during the opening ceremony of the 2012 London Olympics. And while he sat with a NeXT Box, just as he did decades earlier with the same device creating that world changing invention whilst working at CERN. The OP had better sit down, because the following fact will blow their fucking mind. Why?
Sir Tim Berners-Lee is a Unitarian Universalist.
You’re using science OP. As the venerable Quantum Mechanic would say, ‘Stop using computers ’.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
