Religion as Belief versus Religion as Fact.
Dutch, Steven I.
Journal of Geoscience Education, v50 n2 p137-144 Mar 2002
Makes the case that religions perceive their doctrines not as opinions or subjective personal preferences, but as demonstrable facts, supported by historical documentation, experience, observation, and logical inference. Asserts that when scientists deal with issues like creationism, the widespread failure to understand how religions regard their doctrines frequently results in miscommunication and ineffective, even counter-productive, strategies.
