Reddit mentions of Chilton's Repair Manual: Honda Civic/Crx 1984-91 : All U.S. and Canadian Models of Honda Civic and Crx

You know, I've thought about this a lot the last couple of days. Why is it that the people in this thread (including me) are so offended by your position? I mean, you're certainly not the only Christian in the world who practices science, and nobody thinks less of, say, Francis Collins or Ken Miller because they are scientists who are also fiercely devout. I think the difference is this--neither of them makes the claim that science is simply a technique, a series of recipe steps like making a lasagna. Miller's book Finding Darwin's God is an excellent defense of evolutionary theory, and an attempt to reconcile the universe with his religious beliefs. His God-of-the-gappy squeezing of Jehovah into fiddling with the quantum levels of atoms is almost hilarious in its level of cognitive dissonance. I guess what I'm saying is that people like Collins and Miller at least have the decency to have cognitive dissonance. They recognize that faith in the supernatural is at least apparently ridiculous. Science has tangible, visible, important results; faith does not. Most people who choose to be scientists, and indeed, most of the people who frequent this sub, have a certain reverence for science as a way of understanding the universe and providing a way for mankind to advance; it's a search for truth. To you, it's no more important than a Chilton's Manual. Maybe you're a scientist by a dictionary definition, but I guess folks here find that contradictory--like a teacher who hates children, or a chef who spends his evenings eating cookie dough out of a tube. It's as if you dismiss what it is that makes science special. That's probably unfair--I'm sure your science is competent enough.
