Faith in science

Religion: Faith in science : Nature News: As generous as the Templeton foundation's support is, many scientists find it troubling — and some see it as a threat. Jerry Coyne, an evolutionary biologist at the University of Chicago, Illinois, calls the foundation 'sneakier than the creationists'. Through its grants to researchers, Coyne alleges, the foundation is trying to insinuate religious values into science. 'It claims to be on the side of science, but wants to make faith a virtue,' he says.
