Spy vs. spy translated into fish vs. amphibian. High-minded theologians like to intone about there being no real conflict between science and religion. Liberal Protestants have generally resorted to making the content of faith non-verifiable. Not even in terms of probabilities. In this view, the evidence for faith comes from human aspirations, the power of altruism to transform otherwise intractable situations and a mystical awareness of the universe's presence.
Many Catholic theologians tend to hanker in the same direction.
Matthew Fox, among others, has made his notion of Christ virtually identical with cosmic consciousness. He blends traditional Christian thinking into an immanent fruit smoothie. One of the most popular Jewish thinkers, Harold Kushner, proposes that we embrace a God incapable of intervening in creation. God and his creation are somehow coequals and not on friendly terms. So God keeps a respectful distance.
