Two world views dominate the Science/Faith debate today. It is naturalism versus supernaturalism; it is not about science coming into conflict with Christianity, the distinguished Oxford Professor of Mathematics, Dr. John Lennox told a packed audience of some 660 mostly Anglican Christians at a symposium on Science, Faith and apologetics sponsored by Mere Anglicanism 2014.

It is about naturalism vs supernaturalism," said the author of a number of books on the interface between science, philosophy and theology.
