  FAITH AND SCIENCE IN ORTHODOX GNOSIOLOGY AND METHODOLOGY
Theology's academic classification among the theoretical sciences or arts began in the 12th century in the west and is due to the shift of theology into metaphysics.
The use of the intellect in the field of science leads unavoidably to the rejection of the supernatural as incomprehensible, and its use in the field of faith can lead to the rejection of science when it is considered to be in conflict with faith.
But the use of science in a metaphysical struggle against faith, as was practised in the West, and as was transferred to the East, is opposed quite rightly by the traditional theologians of the 18th and 19th century.

 Christian Science   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Science and Health together with the Bible are called the Pastor of Christian Science.
Additionally, the book Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, which is the Christian Scientist's mainstay of spiritual knowledge, reads with a rhythm of pseudo logical statements that has the tendency to dull the senses when read long enough.
Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures is the primary interpretive source of the Bible and source guide of Christian Science.

 Wendy E. Wagner, The "Bad Science" Fiction: Reclaiming The Debate Over The Role Of Science In Public Health And ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
Science can, for example, identify the level of high-dose exposure that produces tumors in fifty percent of mice exposed to the pollutant (Q2), but it leaves unanswered how regulators should extrapolate from this type of study to humans.
Since the zigzag nature of science and science policy makes it easy to blur the respective roles of science and policy in regulatory decisionmaking, these political checks and balances can be lost or at least impeded by the complex interweaving of technical and value decisions.
Once this private science is excluded, the examples of regulatory bad science are winnowed down to a few, virtually all of which are contested.

The aim of the Laboratory is to support research and teaching by the development and application of modern technologies in photography, cataloguing, archiving and digital image processing for historical archives and digital libraries.
Such a collection of documents will be decisive in the study of the issues related to the introduction of the new sciences to the Greek speaking world during the 17th and 18th centuries.
These books have a special interest for the history of science in the Greek speaking regions of the Ottoman Empire because they reflect the attempts to form the philosophical context in which the new scientific ideas were to be elaborated.

She was convinced that Christian healing was a misunderstood "science," and she set herself the task of outlining its methodology.
Eddy (or "Mother Eddy," as she came to be called by her devoted followers) was in fact from a worldly standpoint--a rather remarkable thinker far in advance of her time and more "acceptable" in our own pluralistic age.
Eddy's primary text, Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, is not called "Key to the Scriptures" for nothing.

Renowned for his co-discovery of the second law of thermodynamics and his invention of the ophthalmoscope, Helmholtz also made many other contributions to physiology, physical theory, philosophy of science and mathematics, and aesthetic thought.
David Cahan has assembled an outstanding group of European and North American historians of science and philosophy for this intellectual biography of Helmholtz, the first ever to critically assess both his published and unpublished writings.
It represents a significant contribution not only to Helmholtz scholarship but also to the history of nineteenth-century science and philosophy in general.
