SUMMARY:The Imagined Conflict: On Science and God
LOCATION:Cambridge University: Woolf Institute
DESCRIPTION:There is widespread belief among the public that there is a co
 nflict between science and God. But the history of science teaches us rath
 er that they complement each other than compete. Many important contributo
 rs to science have stood for such a view\, and several of them will be pre
 sented in this lecture. Conflict is often caused by having too high an ide
 a of science and too low a view of God. Science may even bring us to awe o
 ver the mystery of creation. Both the wonder of cosmic evolution\, from Bi
 g Bang to the present\, and the evolutionary transitions of biological evo
 lution\, indirectly point us to a creator. Cosmologist Allan Sandage (1926
 -2010) expresses it like this: “It was my science that drove me to the c
 onclusion that the world is much more complicated than can be explained by
  science. It is only through the supernatural that I can understand the my
 stery of existence.”
