The three main perspectives on science are all related to the main schools of thought concerning the philosophy of science. The theological perspective takes faith in God as paramount, rejecting any scientific finding which rejects revelation, scripture or interpretation. On the opposite end is the atheistic or materialistic perspective, which rejects all possibility of supernatural causation. The middle ground is held by those who exalt God and religious faith, while respecting any scientific discovery backed by actual evidence.
