Blackwell companion to natural theology

I've started reading this and will report with a fuller review once I've finished. Currently I'm interested in the question of whether methodological naturalism in science is equivalent to atheism. Many atheists appear to argue against the existence of God on such methodological grounds, i.e. positing the existence of God serves no explanatory purpose in scientific terms, as if science was the only valid method of apprehending reality. On the other side, I've encountered Orthodox objections to the entire enterprise of modern science on the grounds that it employs methodological naturalism. However, I am of the opinion that, on the one hand, science must be naturalistic of necessity, i.e. science by definition is the study of natural causation, and therefore can never as a rule refer to divine causality. On the other hand, it follows from this that the question of divine causality will never fall under the purview of science, which would be something along the lines of Gould's "non-overlapping magisteria", if I'm not mistaken.

This blog's purpose

I am an Orthodox Christian obsessed with reasoning through faith. This blog will represent my attempts to do so using different literary techniques. I welcome all civil comments.
