Cover Story: Both faith and science can be defined as: (1) Methodologies; (2) Bodies of knowledge; and (3) Institutions. In other words, each can be understood in terms of content and function, as well as who they involve. The third way of understanding science—as an institution—seems to often be overlooked. Thus, its ethical underpinnings and implications are also underappreciated. In the 21st century, any model demonstrating the interaction between science and faith must include an ethical component. This essay briefly deliniates significant areas of disagreement between science and religion, which demonstrate that these clashes are essentially ethical in nature. View this paper
