Summary:
This newspaper article written by Robert C. Cowen talks about how scientists think that theological thoughts are deforming scientific philosophy. But, Cowen believes otherwise. He believes it is the goodness of the religion that is at risk. In a section of the article, Cowen mentions that scientists separate fact from fantasy. People have been basing their beliefs off of scientific knowledge, but that is very unreliable seeing as it is changing everyday. Mixing science and religion is a horrible idea that can really affect the world in a bad way.

Analysis:
"Scientists, he notes, use intellectual tools to separate fact from fantasy" said Cowen (third paragraph). From this, I would like to know what tools are used to separate the two? "Yet science and religion are different realms of human thought, he claims" said Cowen (fourth paragraph). How can Goldberg justify that these two concepts are a part of human thought?
