conservative politicians challenge the irrefutability of scientific
findings such as climate change, it is more important than ever to
understand the conflict at the heart of the "religion vs. science"
debates unfolding in the public sphere. In this groundbreaking
work, John H. Evans reveals that, with a few limited exceptions,
even the most conservative religious Americans accept science's
ability to make factual claims about the world. However, many
religious people take issue with the morality implicitly promoted
by some forms of science. Using clear and engaging scholarship,
Evans upends the prevailing notion that there is a fundamental
conflict over the way that scientists and religious people make
claims about nature and argues that only by properly understanding
moral conflict between contemporary religion and science will we be
able to contribute to a more productive interaction between these
two great institutions.
