Jerry Coyne and the Lack of Comity between Science and Religion

Last Sunday we heard John Haught's presentation on the common ground between science and religion--it was his side of the debate at the Gaines Center at UKY. This coming Sunday we'll hear from the other side in the person of Jerry Coyne, professor of Biology at the U. Chicago. Coyne pulls no punches in what amounts to an aggressive and unbalanced attack on religion. My interest in Coyne's argument is that he is fairly representative of the positions taken by scientists against religion. Coyne say little that is not accurate, but his points are not particularly germane to the argument. This is a common theme, and one that we should be alert to.

Please join us for an interesting session. We'll be happy to see you. As ever, loving childcare is provided.
