Science and religion Do you know that the Vatican has its own academy of sciences ? The Pontificia accademia delle scienze was established in 1936. Although kind of small compared to the other established academy of sciences in Europe, the Pontificia accademia delle scienze boasts of some impressive past members including Planck, Rutherford, Fleming, Dirac, Abdus Salam, and Bohr. The Pontificia accademia delle scienze also supports scientific research programmes at other institutions. Not bad for an organization that once gave shit to Galileo. I have had the opportunity (twice) to attend scientific meetings at Pontificia accademia delle scienze. They had good food too.
