Description
Résumé:Underlying the human world of strife and separation is an oft-neglected landscape of commonality among faiths: the natural world. At precisely the time when our religious and political divisions threaten the existence of life on Earth, science offers a sweeping interfaith vista filled with revelations and insights as spiritually meaningful as ancient scriptures. Understood and interpreted as "scripture," creation (natural reality) offers a common text for all the world’s faiths. Studied as sacred scripture, natural reality could ease interreligious and intercultural conflict.
