A January article from ABC News showed one case ofreligion and science coming together. Seems like a foreign concept as the two are always at odds, but a coalition of scientists and religious leaders have decided to put aside their differences to do some environmental good. These Christian fundamentalists have decided that global warming, pollution and other issues plaguing our planet are indeed moral issues as well, and are compelled to lend their hand to the world of science.
Whatever the motivation, this is clearly a huge step. Science and religion are probably the two biggest institutions in the world, and if they can begin to forget their differences and unite for a common good then that's incredible. This coalition has stopped aruging about the origin of our planet to realize that either way it's our duty to protect it. Will they be shaking hands over abortion issues anytime soon? Clearly no, but this is a huge step in bridging the gap.
