I heard a piece on the radio here in the UK some time ago about an artist who does sculptures to do with particle physics. <br/>And there was a brilliant play written by Wales' nationa poet about physics and cosmology too on the radio. Really inspiring.<br/><br/>I think science should stay well away from religion, as not only is science totally different from faith, but religion is even more than faith, it's like you say, dogma, authority etc<br/>We need to be proud of the differences, not create a pseudo-spiritual mask for what science really is. "Temple" is a bad choice, but I'm not sure there is a secular word for what the artists means. I like the idea of science and art merging.

I think science should stay well away from religion, as not only is science totally different from faith, but religion is even more than faith, it’s like you say, dogma, authority etc

It goes away when I leave the page. Perhaps I could hear more 'detail' if I had better speakers.
