Basically, to use science against the belief in God the way atheists do serves only to drive Christians further away from the very thing athiests want Christians to become a part of.

Science is so often at odds with Christianity that Christians distrust the consensus of scientists in general. It is not limited to biology, geology, and cosmology, but it leaks into ecology, psychology, and physics. Such a high percentage of physicists and biologists are atheists and almost no natural scientists take the Bible as the literal truth, I can understand why many Christians think that science is dominated by an anti-Christian culture.
