520    By the twentieth century, science had become so important 
       that religious traditions had to respond to it. Emerging 
       religions, still led by a living founder to guide them, 
       responded with a clarity and focus that illuminates other 
       larger, more established religions' understandings of 
       science. The Hare Krishnas, the Unification Church, and 
       Heaven's Gate each found distinct ways to incorporate 
       major findings of modern American science, understanding 
       it as central to their wider theological and social 
       agendas. In tracing the development of these new religious
       movements' viewpoints on science during each movement's 
       founding period, we can discern how their views on science
       were crafted over time. These NRMs shed light on how 
       religious groups--new, old, alternative, or mainstream--
       could respond to the tremendous growth of power and 
       prestige of science in late twentieth-century America. In 
       this engrossing book, Zeller carefully shows that 
       religious groups had several methods of creatively 
       responding to science, and that the often-assumed conflict
       -based model of "science vs. religion" must be replaced by
       a more nuanced understanding of how religions operate in 
       our modern scientific world.
