Recently, conflicts, or supposed conflicts between science and religious belief have again and again taken center stage in our public debates — from Terri Shiavo to stem cell research, “intelligent design” to the Supreme Court confirmation hearings and the topic of abortion which seems so often the all-pervading subtext. So over at TPMCafe, we’re having “Faith and Science Week.”
At Table for One, we’ll be joined by Dr. Jeremy Gunn, director of the ACLU’s Program on Freedom of Religion and Belief. Dr. Gunn will be discussing the on-going Dover case and the public debate on the teaching of evolution and so-called ‘Intelligent Design.’
And at the Book Club, author Chris Mooney is discussing his new book, The Republican War on Science.
