Why put that stumbling block before science?
It’s not a stumbling block. Science can’t detect God’s guidance and so doesn’t include it in their theory. Scripture can’t explain accurately how things work in the real world. So there is no overlap between the two.

That doesn’t answer the question. Why must faith precede science?
Now that is a good question.
Perhaps “must” is not a good adjective.
If you ar going to pt god above all else then…
If not
Well, you get the idea

One of the target audiences of BioLogos ALREADY places faith before
science. One method of reconciliation is to go to where the audience IS,
not to where you want them to be.
So, by exploring GAE themes of teleology, time frame, and Pre-Adamite
populations, the cognitive patterns that support their thinking can become
more fluid and adaptable to ideas found in science.
They fail miserably.
I am sure there are some that put faith before science but that would only be their choice. For me the two are equally yoked to use a Biblical example.

Anyone who puts anything before God might want to take a peak at the first commandment.

So how do you source science in the supernatural?
I think I posted this before, but I remember a quote from Lausanne, I think, where a Christian apologist said that he hoped his Christian faith was true, acted like it was, but was willing to test and change it if disproven.
What do you think is their most reasonable line of dispute?
I’m not quite sure what specific failures you mean….
GAE. Did that absurd contrivance leverage anyone a step to the left? Does John Walton’s? Doesn’t the law of diminishing returns apply?
