First, pick something that we can all observe in the universe. For instance, the rising and lowering of the ocean tides. Now, pick a supernatural explanation for this. E.g., God heaving and blowing the oceans back and forth so that the tides rise and fall. Now show how science can study this.<BR/><BR/>In the meanwhile, employ faith to ignore the movement of the moon about the earth so that you can dismiss those awful naturalistic explanations that the unenlightened scientists have given us in the past.<BR/><BR/>See?
