Thanks @RonSewell . Pick up the conversation here.
The secular @NLENTS noted that “science and Christianity have been pitted against each other unnecessarily. Conflicts over evolution have bred mistrust on both sides that has bled into other issues,” like skepticism about vaccines.
“When Christians and evolutionary science find harmony and common ground, or at least a peaceful truce, we can build trust and begin to work together on matters that threaten the healthy, safety, and flourishing of us all,” Lents said. “For this reason, I applaud the work that Christian scientists are doing to bring greater acceptance and understanding of science into their communities. We need not be at war with each other.”
The article gets 1.5 million views in the first 12 hours. How often does this sort of thing happen over two years after a book is published?

No quote from Francis Collins though. Biologos was absentee.
