Rather, science has to be understood as a methodology. He errs, however, by framing the “science” he deems compatible with religion and incompatible with naturalism as particular principles derived scientifically, such as the principles of evolution. More remarkably, he argues that science and naturalism (including naturalistic humanism) don’t. Plantinga advocates the view that science and religion fit together well. Plantinga, who teaches at Notre Dame, has been hailed by fellow philosophy professor Michael Bergmann as the world’s leading philosopher of religion. But it’s now the theist mainstream, as shown by its centrality in Alvin Plantinga’s book, Where the Conflict Really Lies. Half a century ago, this response was the dogma of religious outliers. Religionists have responded by arguing that omnipotent deities exist perpetually beyond the detection of science. The knowledge we’ve gleaned from science has shrunk the remaining possible realm of deities to the infinitesimal.
