Wrestling with the intersection (train wreck?) of faith and science


Krista Tipett, host of public radio’s Speaking of Faith, is someone I love to argue with in my car.

She’s provocative, smart, open-minded.

I also happen to think that she soft-pedals some of the darker, more troubling aspects of religious belief.

In this conversation, at the New York Public Library, she takes on the intersection of faith and scientific rigor.

Again, I’m unconvinced. There’s a little too much ‘gee-whiz-wow!’ here and not enough skepticism.

Which is maybe one of the ways that science and faith clash.

But it’s still interesting and hugely thought-provoking. Check it out and comment below…
