 APA formatting is only required for citing sources and references, unless otherwise instructed by the professor. Objective 4: Demonstrate the scientific method. As the authors of our text point out, science is a human endeavor. As such, it is not without its faults, controversies, and ups and downs. (p. 6) However, science still provides us with valuable discoveries, ideas, and solutions when it is approached with a good intention and to the glory of God. As our authors further point out, when approached with evil intent, suffering and division may result. We choose to approach this course from the perspective of seeking to know more about God as our Creator, and to utilize the talents, skills, and ideas with which God has gifted humankind.
