Author: The Most Reverend Pierre DuMaine
Article Abstract:
The article originally appeared as a Christmas message in the diocesan newspaper, The Valley Catholic, from the then Bishop of San Jose to the people of his diocese. Using the “Star of Bethlehem” representing religion or faith and the Starry Messenger of Galileo’s treatise, representing science, the author shows that both science and religion/faith are at the same time shrouded in mystery yet knowable and open to understanding There can be no conflict between science and religion he concludes. Both walk along different paths to the same truth.
