Larry and Dr. Steve Dilley discuss the role and contributions of philosophers of science and four models of how science and faith interact - or don't interact. Professor of Philosophy at St. Edward's University, Dr. Dilley is the editor or co-editor of “Darwinian Evolution and Classical Liberalism: Theories in Tension and Human Dignity in Bioethics: From Worldviews to the Public Square” and has contributed numerous articles to other books and collections of essays, including the “Dictionary of Christianity and Science”. Spoiler alert: We think science and faith work well together, and Christians should embrace and study both books of God's revelation, ie., Scripture, and the book of nature. “The heavens are telling the Glory of God”, Psalm 19. This is Part 2 of a 2-part interview.
