Debunking the Galileo Myth - Dinesh D'SouzaMany people have uncritically accepted the idea that there is a longstanding war between science and religion. Read more... Does Science Point to God? - Benjamin D. WikerMore scientists are coming to a conclusion they never expected: The universe was designed. And if it was designed, there must be a Designer. Benjamin D. Wiker shows you what the Intelligent Design movement could mean for the future of science and religion. Read more... Does Science Point to God? Part II: The Christian Critics - Benjamin D. WikerIn the first part of this article, "Does Science Point to God? The Intelligent Design Revolution", I focused on Intelligent Design (ID) as a scientific revolution. In this article, I will get at the importance of the ID movement from a different angle. What happens if we just ignore the ID challenge to evolutionary theory, accept the status quo, and accommodate ourselves to Darwinism? Read more... Don’t Fear the Designer - Tom BethellMy new book, The Politically Incorrect Guide to Science, addresses many topics, ranging from endangered species to the alleged warfare of religion and science.

What was the real point he made in that piece? Read more... Evolutionary Confusion - THOMAS W. CASEThe trouble with evolution as an account of the way things work is that, if it is wrong, then a Creator must exist. There is no way around it. No wonder atheists are frightened. Read more...

Faith, Science and the Persecution of Richard Sternberg - Benjamin D. WikerA fellow Catholic is now being persecuted, in no small part, because of his religion. You haven’t heard about it — nor are you likely to — precisely because it is just the kind of story the reigning media assiduously ignore. Read more... Fathers of Science - Matthew E. BunsonApologists and well-read Catholics can point to many priest-scientists and declare forcefully what Fr. Georges Lemaître—discoverer of the "Big Bang"—robustly proclaimed in 1933: "There is no conflict between religion and science." Read more... Finding Design in Nature - Cardinal Christoph SchönbornEver since 1996, when Pope John Paul II said that evolution (a term he did not define) was "more than just a hypothesis," defenders of neo-Darwinian dogma have often invoked the supposed acceptance - or at least acquiescence - of the Roman Catholic Church when they defend their theory as somehow compatible with Christian faith.
