Science and Religion : Are they compatible?

---

Outline: One of today's most controversial and heated issues is whether or not the conflict between science and religion can be reconciled. In this book renowned philosophers Daniel C. Dennett and Alvin Plantinga expand upon the arguments that they presented in an exciting live debate held at the 2009 American Philosophical Association Central Division conference. An enlightening discussion that will motivate students to think critically, this book opens with Plantinga's assertion that Christianity is compatible with evolutionary theory because Christians believe that God created the living world, and it is entirely possible that God did so by using a process of evolution. The author vigorously rejects this argument, provoking a reply from Plantinga, another response from the author, and final statements from both sides. As philosophers, the authors posses expert skills in critical analysis; their arguments provide a model of dialogue between those who strongly disagree. Ideal for courses in philosophy of religion, science and religion, and philosophy of science, this book is also captivating reading for general readers.
