In both academic and popular circles, it is widely believed that science and religion differ in that science trades in the commodity of reason and religion trades in the commodity of faith. Religious faith is at best a matter of opinion and, at worst, irrational nonsense. In this lecture, it will be argued that this is a misconception both of scientific reason and of religious faith. On the one hand, the ability and scope of reason is more restricted than many people take it to be. On the other hand, religious faith, at least in the case of Christianity, is not something either inferior or contrary to reason. After laying out some basic principles, we shall turn to Christian belief in creation as a crucial test case.
