Science and faith were not enemies on Columbia - Fr. Raymond De Souza

The remarkable thing is how unremarkable it is here. The "it" is the religious dimension of the Columbia tragedy and the importance of religious faith in the lives of the astronauts. The loss of the space shuttle is a major science story, but it was lived here as a spiritual trial. Science and faith were not enemies by those who flew Columbia.  Email This Article

Science and Religion in Identity Crisis - STANLEY L. JAKI

Three hundred or so years ago not a few scientists spoke of science and religion as united in a holy alliance. Two hundred years later theologians could do little about the warfare in which science and religion appeared to be locked forever.  Email This Article

Science and the Story that we Need - NEIL POSTMAN

A serious spiritual problem confronting us in the technological age is that in having effectively solved the problem of information scarcity, we now find that we lack the transcendent narratives that would provide us with the moral guidance, social purpose, and intellectual economy necessary to tell us what we need to know, and especially what we do not need to know.  Email This Article

Scientists are finding a friend in religion - Mark O'Keefe

When Rick Husband, commander of the shuttle Columbia, looked out the window of his spacecraft, he saw what he called God's awe-inspiring creation. Crew member Michael Anderson, a physicist, believed that heaven, not space, was his final frontier.  Email This Article

Scientist’s Challenge: Don’t Shout God Out of Research - BRIAN MCGUIRE

Something Beyond Nature - Charles Colson

Study guide for Scopes Trial - Robin Bernhoft

In the summer of 1925, a small town in Tennessee became a hub of intense international interest when famed defence lawyer Clarence Darrow squared off against progressive politician William Jennings Bryan over a Tennessee law that forbade the teaching of the theory of evolution in schools. Here, in summary, are the often-distorted facts of the case.  Email This Article

Survival of the fakest - Jonathan Wells

Science now knows that many of the pillars of Darwinian theory are either false or misleading. Yet biology texts continue to present them as factual evidence of evolution. What does this imply about their scientific standards?  Email This Article

Teach Evolution—And Ask Hard Questions - MICHAEL J. BEHE

In response to the recent Kansas Board of Education’s decision not to teach the Theory of Evolution, Michael Behe’s New York Times editorial argues that we should teach Darwin’s elegant theory, but also be willing to discuss where it has real problems accounting for the data and where scientists seem to be engaged in wishful thinking.  Email This Article
