How Faith Can Improve Rigor and Creativity in Scientific Research

Intelligent Design the Future

On this episode of ID The Future out of our archive, plant geneticist Richard Buggs speaks to the hosts of the Table Talk podcast about the long-standing claim that science and religion are at odds. The myth that science and religion are incompatible, also known as the warfare myth, was conjured by materialists bent on propagating a Darwinian view of life. But in reality, many of the giants of the scientific revolution, including Newton, Kepler, Boyle, and others, were inspired to do great science because of their faith, not in spite of it. The faith Dr. Buggs examples turns out to be a science starter, not a science stopper.
