Joey Lawsin's simple quote, “The duality of the one is the unity of the two” says many things. There are many different ways we might relate this quote throughout our lives; but today I choose to connect it to science and religion. In this way, Paul Davies is able to open a dialogue between religion and science through his theoretical beliefs. Ian Barbour proposes four different positions through his typology. The first perspective he talks about is that of conflict. Those who fall into the conflict category are those who seek to prove religion with science. Many people who fall into this category are atheists, biblical literalists, and media people. The next position he discusses is independence. Independence separates science and religion, but states that they can coexist if they maintain a safe distance from each other. The third position is dialogue, which compares science and religion. Show similarities and differences. The fourth and final position is integration. Integration consists of all external perspectives. Paul Davies is a theoretical physicist, astrobiologist, cosmologist and best-selling author. He is currently the “Principal Investigator for the Convergence of Physical Science and Cancer Biology, all at Arizona State University.” (“ASU”) Prior to this, Davies held academic positions at many universities, such as Cambridge, London and Newcastle Tyne, UK. In 1990, Davies moved to Australia as a “professor of mathematical physics at the University of Adelaide”. ("ASU") He also later helped found the Australian Center for Astrobiology. Davies' main research interests are the “big questions” of life. From the beginning of the universe, to the beginning of life, and almost everything that has... half of the paper... the same vision as Einstein, which would be dialogistic. They both believe that religion and science are very important to our universe and sometimes cross paths along the path of learning and discovery. Davies has many of his own opinions on science and is still working on them at Arizona State University. He has done many great things throughout his life and I believe there are still more achievements on his way. Works Cited "ASU". Biography. ASUComos. Network. 14 November 2013. .Davies, Paolo.
