Description
Summary:After an extended reflection on how I came to value exploring the interfaces of science and theology, this paper explores three of my recent areas of research in the field. The first is the area of natural theology, which is here presented as a natural and potentially productive interface between science and theology. The second is the raft of questions raised by the "New Atheism" of writers such as Richard Dawkins and Daniel Dennett. The third is the intellectual difficulties raised by interdisciplinarity, in particular the observation that different disciplines rest on different understandings of methods, norms, and investigative procedures.
