ASU's Kathryn Johnson on How Experiencing Awe from Science Influences Beliefs about God (VIDEO)
Caption
Many Americans perceive science and religion as incompatible, but a study from the ASU Department of Psychology has found that how people engage with science can change how they think about God -- and even promote belief in God. People who associated science with logical thinking were more likely to report not believing in God or that God was unknowable. But when people were awed by science, they reported stronger belief in abstract views of God.
