Conflict actors |
Groups or institutions collectively |
Religion’s really not the promoter of science. […], there will be conflicts, definitely. (34) |
Single individuals |
I think in some people beliefs are very contradicting, but I think […] they can complement each other. (17) |
Own role in conflict |
Advance specific side |
If we do our jobs well we will be able to prove one day that the origin of life didn’t have to be mystical, it didn’t have to be created by God. (9) |
Provide information |
I think we should engage these people […] and say, “[…] Earth is four and a half billion years old. And after 3.8 billion years there was life […]” And maybe they’ll just walk away and not believe you but at least they heard it. (33) |
Actively try to defuse conflict |
Why not to make connection with what was traditionally explained […] and what is the scientific explanation or interpretation? [A]lso science is an interpretation of reality. (40) |
Determine which side is right |
[W]e can just generate facts and if questions come, then we have to think about it. (27) |
Cause of conflict |
Lack of information |
If you think that God created the Earth in seven days […] that’s not gonna work. (11) |
There is no conflict |
[S]cience and the beauty of mathematics, […], of how the world works, and how beautiful and how logical everything is, this is for me the best proof that there’s some God. (5) |
Active (willing) violation of rules or boundaries |
There’s a lot of conflict, but there doesn’t have to be. […] If there were to be no conflict, it would be religion who would have to accommodate. (9) |
Own role in communication |
Patrols boundaries between institutions |
I think already showing that the origin of life research is not just research to disprove that God exists. (12) |
Presents all facts transparently |
But in principle, historically spoken, it’s. . . it’s. . . of course it’s important and one should consider and keep in mind. (32) |
Promotes an institution |
[N]ot so much as an equivalent theory, because […] one is popular belief, and the others are being tested through the scientific method. (22) |
