Stephen--
Did you read "How Christianity (and Capitalism) Led to Science"? It's
in the same issue of The Chronicle - December 2, p. B11 (just before
the Narnia article in the print version). I get the print version from
a friend but I don't have access to the online version or I'd send a
URL. I am interested in this article. I have read only part of it so
far, but I will read the rest and I may want to discuss it with you if
you have the time. Quote: "The success of the West, including the
rise of science, rested entirely on religious foundations." I doubt I
will arrive at the same conclusion as the author after reading his
article, but I'll try to predict my reaction as "Christianity had some
features that allowed science to progress better than under some other
religious/social systems."

No. The above web page was forwarded to me. But I would be very
interested in reading the one you talk about. Do you have a web page?
Huh -- I guess I can access it. I didn't used to be able to.
I put a copy here with a link to the original:
