No conflict between faith and science, eh?
#11
RE: No conflict between faith and science, eh?
So long as religion is seen as pat answers to every question, it is incompatible with science. But does it have to be that? So long as a religionist accepted the essential mystery of their god then science needn't pose any conflict for them.

Christians could admit that their understanding of the bible is imperfect. They could recognize that how one should read the bible isn't obvious, that an allegorical approach is as permissible as a legalistic one. If they would accept this much humility and uncertainty, then science would be an easy hurdle.
