GLOBAL FAITHS: Modern science is a gift of Christianity to the world
Christianity is the biggest of our global faiths and it is the faith of many readers of The Goshen News. It also seems to be the faith most troubled by discoveries and theories of science. What we don’t often enough remember is that modern science as we know it arose in the Christian West and is a gift of Christianity to the world. Many scientists in early modern times and today were and are in fact devout Christians, as for example Sir Isaac Newton, the man credited with formulating the theory of gravity.
Why modern science as we know it originated in the Christian West is a big subject that can be debated at length. But surely one reason is the Judeo-Christian doctrine of creation, which saw the universe as God’s work and not itself divine, unlike many other religions that saw things in the universe as themselves gods — the sea, the sun, the moon, even birds and animals.
Polytheistic people worshipped many of these objects of nature, whereas Jews and Christians have seen themselves as committed to exercising stewardship of God’s creation. This made all the difference, for example, in finding causes for diseases instead of seeing illness and death as a direct punishment by some malevolent deity.
Still, most Americans are aware of incidents of turbulence that overtook the Christian world in what seemed at first to be conflicts between the discoveries of science and the received faith. One of the most notable involved the heliocentric theory — the observations that arose in astronomy, the discoveries of Copernicus and Galileo that the sun, not the earth, is the center of our corner of the universe and that the Earth rotates upon its axis and makes an annual orbit around the sun. For many Christians this contradicted the Bible’s statement that God had established the earth and that it stood fast. But most Christians soon accepted the new astronomy and worked out a way of reconciling it with the Bible.
A second instance of turbulence in the relationship of religion and science came with the publication of Darwin’s Origin of Species in 1859. It kicked off the long-running debate over evolution, which is still going on in some places. But on this issue, too many Christians have recognized the claims of science to the point that even most Christian colleges and universities in America are now accepting the theory of evolution in general, making the needed adjustments in biblical interpretation.
Most recently another claim of science has come along to challenge an old and long-standing Christian belief. As a recent issue of “Christianity Today” reported, geneticists are now saying that it is impossible to trace the human race back to a primal pair, in the book of Genesis called Adam and Eve. Interestingly, that “Christianity Today” report did not assert that the geneticists were wrong and that we must continue to believe the Genesis Adam and Eve story the way Christianity has traditionally held it. It said the new claim of biological science may require us to return once more to our homework in biblical reinterpretation.
Readers of this column can do what they want with any or all of these debates or dialogues between Christianity and science, but we should always remember that science is a product of Western Christianity and that Christianity is the better for the rise of science. Science has raised our life expectancy, sharpened our understanding of not only God’s creation but also of the Bible and of our responsibilities as stewards of God’s creation.

\maketitle
The Institute of Reproducing Kernels is dealing with the theory of division by zero calculus and declares that the division by zero was discovered as $0/0=1/0=z/0=0$ in a natural sense on 2014.2.2. The result shows a new basic idea on the universe and space since Aristotelēs (BC384 - BC322) and Euclid (BC 3 Century - ), and the division by zero is since Brahmagupta (598 - 668 ?).
In particular, Brahmagupta defined as $0/0=0$ in Brāhmasphuṭasiddhānta (628), however, our world history stated that his definition $0/0=0$ is wrong over 1300 years, but, we showed that his definition is suitable.
For the details, see the references and the site: http://okmr.yamatoblog.net/
We wrote a global book manuscript \cite{s18} with 154 pages
and stated in the preface and last section of the manuscript as follows:
\bigskip
{\bf Preface}
\medskip
The division by zero has a long and mysterious story over the world (see, for example, H. G. Romig \cite{romig} and Google site with the division by zero) with its physical viewpoints since the document of zero in India on AD 628. In particular, note that Brahmagupta (598 -668 ?) established the four arithmetic operations by introducing $0$ and at the same time he defined as $0/0=0$ in
Brhmasphuasiddhnta. Our world history, however, stated that his definition $0/0=0$ is wrong over 1300 years, but, we will see that his definition is right and suitable.
The division by zero $1/0=0/0=z/0$ itself will be quite clear and trivial with several natural extensions of the fractions against the mysterously long history, as we can see from the concepts of the Moore-Penrose generalized inverses or the Tikhonov regularization method to the fundamental equation $az=b$, whose solution leads to the definition $z =b/a$.
However, the result (definition) will show that
for the elementary mapping
\begin{equation}
W = \frac{1}{z},
\end{equation}
the image of $z=0$ is $W=0$ ({\bf should be defined from the form}). This fact seems to be a curious one in connection with our well-established popular image for the point at infinity on the Riemann sphere (\cite{ahlfors}). �As the representation of the point at infinity of the Riemann sphere by the
zero $z = 0$, we will see some delicate relations between $0$ and $\infty$ which show a strong
discontinuity at the point of infinity on the Riemann sphere. We did not consider any value of the elementary function $W =1/ z $ at the origin $z = 0$, because we did not consider the division by zero
$1/ 0$ in a good way. Many and many people consider its value by the limiting like $+\infty $ and $- \infty$ or the
point at infinity as $\infty$. However, their basic idea comes from {\bf continuity} with the common sense or
based on the basic idea of Aristotle. --
For the related Greece philosophy, see \cite{a,b,c}. However, as the division by zero we will consider its value of
the function $W =1 /z$ as zero at $z = 0$. We will see that this new definition is valid widely in
mathematics and mathematical sciences, see (\cite{mos,osm}) for example. Therefore, the division by zero will give great impacts to calculus, Euclidean geometry, analytic geometry, differential equations, complex analysis in the undergraduate level and to our basic ideas for the space and universe.
We have to arrange globally our modern mathematics in our undergraduate level. Our common sense on the division by zero will be wrong, with our basic idea on the space and the universe since Aristotle and Euclid. We would like to show clearly these facts in this book. The content is in the undergraduate level.
\bigskip
\bigskip
{\bf Conclusion}
\medskip
Apparently, the common sense on the division by zero with a long and mysterious history is wrong and our basic idea on the space around the point at infinity is also wrong since Euclid. On the gradient or on derivatives we have a great missing since $\tan (\pi/2) = 0$. Our mathematics is also wrong in elementary mathematics on the division by zero.
This book is an elementary mathematics on our division by zero as the first publication of books for the topics. The contents have wide connections to various fields beyond mathematics. The author expects the readers write some philosophy, papers and essays on the division by zero from this simple source book.
The division by zero theory may be developed and expanded greatly as in the author's conjecture whose break theory was recently given surprisingly and deeply by Professor Qi'an Guan \cite{guan} since 30 years proposed in \cite{s88} (the original is in \cite {s79}).
We have to arrange globally our modern mathematics with our division by zero in our undergraduate level.
We have to change our basic ideas for our space and world.
We have to change globally our textbooks and scientific books on the division by zero.
