At the Jesus the Radical Pastor blog, John Frye has some interesting thoughts on the ‘conflict’ between story and science. It’s not anything that Wendy hasn’t been saying for a while, but it’s nice to see somebody else with similar thoughts.
I personally do notconsider the Bible to be a scientific or historical text. But that in no way detracts from it’s truth. After all, I don’t think that, when Jesus told a parable, he was recounting an actual event. He was using story to better illustrate his point, becasue story can work its way into a person’s psyche in a way that “facts” never can.
