I recently heard an interview with Sir John Houghton, one of the world’s preeminent climatologists, regarding his thoughts on the conflict between faith in God and scientific reason. As a highly distinguished scientist, and former professor of atmospheric physics at Oxford University, he has given most of his career to studying global warming and encouraging the international community to address its tremendous impact on the globe. An unapologetic Christian, Houghton has voiced the belief that science and religion complement one another; an idea that unnerves the conservative and fundamentalist religious community.
In this highly intriguing interview with PBS's Bill Moyer, Sir John Houghton shares his thoughts on creation, the Bible as a scientific book, and faith in God.
Well worth listening to.
