Two-thirds of American adults have no problem reconciling their religious faith with the facts of science, but 59 percent think “other people” have a problem, according to a new Pew Research Center study.

“People’s sense that there generally is a conflict between religion and science seems to have less to do with their own religious beliefs than it does with their perceptions of other people’s beliefs,” said the report by Cary Funk and Becka A. Alper.

Released Thursday, the study is based on interviews with some 2,000 adults in August. It found that 68 percent of people said science doesn’t conflict with their own religious beliefs, while 30 percent said that it does.

Moreover, non-churchgoers were far more likely to agree that “science and religion are often in conflict.”
