E.O. Wilson in Consilience: The Unity of Knowledge:

On the one side, ethics and religion are still too complex for present-day science to explain in depth.  On the other, they are far more a product of autonomous evolution than hiterto conceded by most theologians.  Science faces in ethics and religion its most interesting and possibly humbling challenge, while religion must somehow find the way to incorporate the discoveries of science in order to retain credibility.  Religion will possess strength to the extent that it codifies and puts into enduring, poetic form the highest values of humanity consistent with empirical knowledge.
