This book explores the relationship between science and religion, arguing that they are two different projects with overlapping purposes. The author believed in a respectful concordat between the magisteria of science and religion.
Well, let me recommend the book which is his book called Rocks of Ages by Stephen J. Gould which is all about science and religion and what he says in that book and I agree with him is that these are two different projects.
He calls them two different magisteria and the purposes overlap at times and the frontier is not entirely clear but science investigates, measures, tries to determine the causes, the immediate causes of things and helps us to understand the entire environment human and non-human that we live in. But when you ask the question of value, what should we do? Or what is the meaning of this or that from everything from the universe and the cosmos to human life? Science as science doesn't have any competence in that area and this is the area that religion, religions over many, many millennia have dealt with, coped with, thought about and we need them both as full human beings.
