Converging Paths To Truth: The Summerhays Lectures on Science and Religion
Converging Paths To Truth The Summerhays Lectures on Science and Religion Author:Michael D. Rhodes, J. Ward Moody Many great scientists such as Isaac Newton and Albert Einstein spoke and wrote freely of their religious thoughts and feelings, seeing no fundamental conflict between them and their science.

Educated dialogue between these two camps has too often been reduced to shallow platitudes or, worse, silence. Truth is not in conflict with itself. Religious truth is established through revelation, and scientific inquiry has uncovered many facts that have thus far stood the test of time.
