Are science and religion compatible?

Are science and religion compatible? | Open Parachute.

This is THE war of our generation> Assumptions of incompatibility have got to go. However, if religion (or more properly, Theology) and science are compatible, it is by no means clear how.

Spinoza and Hegel will be useful guides in this debate, along with other great historical figures like Heidegger and Kierkegaard. The notions of time and causality are key, so Hume and Whitehead will have to be discussed extensively. We should also be aware of non-western sources like the Buddhist notion of codependent arising.

There is much work to do.
