Rhonda, It's so funny that non-believing scientists separate God from science. Guess it's more convienient for them not to have to acknowledge him. Then, my goodness! They might even have to make a personal decision about Him, and we wouldn't want that, would we? I agree with you about the word "religion." I look at it more as a relationship.
