This course examines ways in which science and religion interact in the modern world. For example: what distinguishes scientific inquiry from religious inquiry, and might there be areas where their inquiries overlap? If scientific findings conflict with religious doctrine, how should that conflict be understood and/or addressed? Can scientific findings support religious doctrine? Can insights from analytic philosophy of science be brought to bear on the relationship between science and religion?
