I think the point is that science by existing works to disprove the existence of God. For example, Darwin was not trying to disprove the existence of God when he wrote about evolution, but by doing so he supported the case that god does not exist.

Are any scientists out there with the active mission of “disprove god”? I highly doubt that.

The entire first testament is a metaphor. It blows my mind that anyone can think otherwise.

i was referring to the adam and eve story from the quran (i am muslim), but i will give it a read :}
honestly, a lot of the stories that appear to ‘not make sense’ make much more if you consider the metaphor aspect.

Twas the original purpose of natural philosophers to find proof of God’s existence.
