Synopsis
Rocks of Ages is a short book by the Harvard paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould on the relationship between science and religion. According to Gould each "magisterium" occupies a separate realm of human understanding. Science informs us how the natural world works (or how the heavens go), and religion informs us on how we ought to morally behave (how to go to heaven). If each realm is separate, then according to Gould, they can never truly be in conflict.
