In "Believe: Why Everyone Should Be Religious," Ross Douthat argues that modern science has unexpectedly strengthened the case for faith. He presents a provocative perspective that, contrary to popular belief, advancements in scientific understanding do not negate the value of religious belief. Instead, they provide a deeper context for understanding spirituality and human existence. Douthat, recognized for engaging liberal audiences, offers insights that bridge the divide between science and faith, suggesting that they can coexist and enrich one another, providing a more nuanced foundation for belief.
"Douthat argues that the findings of modern science, which have often been seen as undermining faith, actually provide avenues for a richer understanding of religious beliefs."
"By engaging with scientific developments, faith can adapt and find new meaning, challenging the notion that belief systems must conflict with empirical evidence."
