According to the Christian theology, the universe, the earth and life were only created by God about 7500 years ago. God created the universe, the laws of the universe and life. Yet, according to scientific theories and facts, the age of the universe is around 13.7 billion years, the earth was formed about 4.5 billion years ago, life started on earth about 2.5 billion years ago and species evolved through natural selection over millions/billions of years. How can one reconcile these apparently irreconcilable differences? Can religion and science ever be reconciled? Some religious people just ignore the scientific evidences of evolution and most scientists reject and deny religious teachings outright. I think it is impossible to ignore the Dinosaur fossils and the associated ages determined by rigorous scientific methods such as carbon dating. I also think science cannot reasonably ignore religion because science still has far too many unanswered questions and has already come to a dead end in many areas, including in physics. Therefore, we start by accepting the scientific theories and evidences and then work to find ways to find religious explanations, which is a new scientific paradigm proposed in this paper. This leads to a new insight: God completed millions/billions years of evolutionary processes in a few literal hours and days! God accelerated the evolutionary processes of biology, fossilization, geology and cosmology. The dinosaur evolved, lived, became extinct and was fossilized within a few literal hours! The interpretation of this leads to new and profound views.
