CONFLITO ENTRE CIÊNCIA E RELIGIÃO EM GOULD, HARRIS E DAWKINS

One of the recurring subjects of the debate about atheism is the identity that the thesis of the conflict between science and religion usually occupies in the discourse. The creation and dissemination of the “conflict thesis” is supported by neo-neo-artistic works. It is very important that positions that are more favorable to religion in this case, we have the statements of Stephen Jay Gould that fights against the negative aspects of the thesis. On the other hand, there are atheist thinkers like Sam Harris and Richard Dawkins who are against Gould's claims, as if the conflict thesis were an important part of atheistic identity. This work aims to think about how the two antagonistic sides are positioned.
