Article: Agreeing to Disagree on God's Place in Science

I ran across this article and found it to be quite interesting. The article discusses the implications of the existence of God in a world based on scientific laws. In class, we often find our discussions reverting back to religious references, beliefs, etc. (such as Chiang's "Hell is the Absence of God.") This article discusses the arguments posed by those on both sides of the fence, and asks the question of whether or not the differing beliefs will ever truly be reconcilable. In the end, it suggests that "agreeing to disagree" may be the only answer. In reading this, I thought back to our discussion of whether knowing the outcome would affect the actions we take and events that occur up until that outcome. If there was a way to scientifically prove that God does in fact exist, what would this mean for the scientific world as we know it? How would it affect scientists and their personal beliefs? Would it change everything as the inconsistency of math did in "Division by Zero"?
