The supposed reason is that science said the Earth was round. When NASA launched its first rockets they could not get into space. So they decided to protect science and also hide God from us.
Not this again;
...hid God from us.
That is most insane thing I have seen posted here, and that includes the FET's lack of understanding everything.
Hide God? The work of God is EVERYWHERE to SEE. And the more one get into the science, the more of God's work there is to see.
You have made the classic mistake of thinking science is anti God and the the Bible is anti science. The Bible is WHO created. Science attempts to say HOW.
Maybe because how and who have the same three letters...?
