People of faith can believe in science, many are on this list and I am proud to call them friends. I do think they are in the minority, however. And many others are compelled to not speak out, for fear of ostracism or worse.
Remember that the USA is a hotbed of fundamentalism- far more than Europe and most other western-culture societies, so we will encounter far fewer here who can incorporate science into their brand of faith. This country is still very provincial in many aspects of cultural nuance. _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list Utah-Astronomy@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy Visit the Photo Gallery: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php Visit the Wiki: http://www.utahastronomy.com
