Review of Einstein's God by Krista Tippett **** If Scientists Should Listen to Religionists, then Religionists Should Listen to Scientists.
I found the book to be very interesting. It is a good introduction to what some of modernity's best thinkers believe. It is important to know what scientists think about Gd, as these folks are usually very reasonable. In my book, reason is a virtue. Scientists generally don’t think like those that have faith. It is like their brains are wired differently. These viewpoints matter though, as we should look to knowledgeable people for information. Many people like to trumpet literal 7 day creationism to scientists. Why not let scientists give their opinion on religion? It’s a good idea. Maybe, scientists will listen to you if you listen to them? In fact, I think by knowing what other sides think and why, we are well on the way to forming a more perfect union.
