Freud's understanding of human makeup brought confusion to and denial from many Christians. Einsteins's view that creation is an ongoing process, with all created things and beings said to be energy in certain forms of motion, led to bewilderment and argument. Crick and Watson's discovery of DNA has been a monumental step forward in exploring biological makeup, which by contrast has been popularly received as little more than fingerprint identification with little attention given to the tremendous implication of that discovery. One widespread view is that science, art, and theology are dealing with three separate realities. Scientists who are religious say their science does not bear on their faith, and some theologians who are scientifically- informed indicate that science has no bearing on their faith.
Many artists have very little to say about science or theology, and remain secure in their own area.
There is one reality, and all seek to relate to and understand this common denominator. No one approach can discover or express this one reality, despite opinions to the contrary. The time has come to put aside confrontation and enter into dialogue. Each view has much to learn from the others. Science brings to religion the realization that creation is a continuing process and that nature is dynamic.
