The Reverend T.J. Pelham and The Reverend Doctor J.A. Franklin discuss the status and uses of science in our society. Is there a distinctively Christian or theological response to “the science” in the context of the Coronavirus crisis? How should Christians respond to the way that science has been wielded by politicians and the media? Should we accept these things at face value or should we look for a more nuanced approach? How do we balance the effects of one set of scientific claims with the extreme amount of damage that is being caused to people who are suffering as collateral damage from the responses to the putative threat of Covid-19?
