Did you know, science did a double slit experiment to see how light would react, when a beam of light goes through a double slit it causes a interference pattern. Scientist when using a device to see which slit the small bits of matter were going to discovered the light acted different as though it new it was being watched. Scientist say it appears light is aware/concious. Also just to get into the complexity of the universe, if you took a ruler and stretched it across the universe which is 15 billion light years roughly in length if you were to move gravity just 1 inch to the left or right life would be impossible. Just shows how perfect and exact things are set in place.

This is why I don't understand why so many Christians try to fight science. Science is the HOW, not WHY. God made science, or what we call science, for the world to act on. It's how everything happens, all of God's work can be explained with science b/c God made it that way.

Not everything could be explained by science of how God created everything,because God is God,and man would never be able to discover that or understand,and God would not allow them to have that intellect.

At best the scientists can barely scratch the surface,for it would not matter if they understood the atom,or anything else,they still would not understand how God created everything.

Can they understand the creation of a tree,and to tell the truth when did scientists ever say things came about by creation,but they believe evolving,because they can never understand how something can be created at once with no evolving.

Even if God used evolution to make all things,scientists could still not understand it,but the Bible says that God took one of Adam's ribs,and made Eve,so God did not use evolution to make Eve,but made Eve to be a help mate for Adam when he was a whole man.

It isn't awareness. In order to measure something, we have to interact with it, and it just so happens that interacting with something causes its waveform to collapse. For a detailed description that makes sense, see the chapter on quantum mechanics in The Beginning of Infinity by David Deutsch, now in hardback in the science section of your local bookstore.

Is this documented somewhere?

It is so true that science explains God’s world and often explains the “how”. Perhaps it is also true that some of our attitudes toward science are not right with God.

God wants us to have complete trust in Him, not in the science of how He works in the world. Idolatry is not only making a man made object to folow but making men’s ideas what we follow instead of following God. When scientist say we should look to them for answers and explanations, without giving God credit as the creator, it is idolatry.

I think scientists DO have the answers to a lot of questions. And that's great, b/c it gives us humans access to things that ancient cultures had no idea of. But I think God is WHY those answers even happen.

a lot of christians oppose science in general because the advocates of anti biblical notions like the theory of evolution insist on equivocating those ideas with 'science'...which then leads to a misguided backlash against science itself...

It's not that christians refuse to acknowledge science. Real science points to an intelligent designer. The problem is that ''science'' refuses to acknowlege God. What many people call science is in fact religion because there is no evidence. You just have to believe it. It's just speculation. Science looses all credibility with me when it teaches a theory that has been proven to be mathematicaly impossible.
