Caught sight of this on the online British newspaper Times Online.

It links over to the website, Theos where there are a few more links about Darwin and faith.

Prominent scientists and leading religious figures have joined forces
to call for an end to the fighting over Charles Darwin’s legacy.

Mark Thompson writes:

…science demeans itself when it used as a proof of the non-existence of god.  Science is not meant to provide unfalsifiable answers, nor is it intended to answer questions that can only admit of unfalsifiable answers.  To do so is to turn the scientific method on its head.  And in so doing, science demeans itself because it loses part of its very essence.

Freddie DeBoer calls into question the approaches of “aggressive atheists”:

I think the temptation among aggressive atheists is to think that they are just a few converts away from the great crumble, that if they could just move a few more people closer to their position, they’d win the day. This is folly. There are more people who claim a religious devotion than not, in this world, by billions. There are more in this country by millions. You don’t argue your way out of niches by constantly thumbing your noses at the people who you’re trying to convert. The question then becomes, are they converting at all? Or are they merely asserting superiority?
