It would be be a colssal understatement to say that science plays an important and influential role in academe and generally in our (Western) culture and beyond. Indeed, it is thought in some circles that science just is the paradigm of rationality. Setting aside the fact that science, whatever exactly it is (a philosophical and conventional question), flourished in the West where Christianity reigned and not in other parts of the world where it hasn't. However, even though it is a fact that many of the early great scientists were theists--for example like Newton and Faraday--it is widely thought that science in some important sense has undermined revealed religion.
