Science diplomacy and religion --- Thanks, Estefania, much appreciated. I find it intiguing that this overarching but underlying question garners so little cross-cultural discussion when it has affected global scientific history so fundamentally. I think it still affects how we deal with basic issues (e.g. biological evolution, medicine) and their current iterations (COVID19, AI, quantum physics) in international forums. Not being a subject of debate between traditional heads of state, it has, of course, no home in diplomacy. Nonetheless, I'd appreciate any links on related research and discussion.
