David Wilcox begins this essay with the troubling problem of a science student who, in spite of the best intentions of her Christian instructors, feels that the apparatus of scientific explanations she has learned removes God far,far away. He criticizes the apparent acceptance (in practice, if not in theory) by Christian science teachers of the naturalistic assumptions of the scientific establishment, and explores the question what it would be like to "teach science under the Covenant." Mr. Wilcox teaches biology at Eastern College.
