These two long-time rivals square off once again when scientists capture antimatter, and in doing so validate a scientific-based explanation of how Creation occurred. As with Galileo's discoveries, the "God particle" threatens the Church since the "discovery might begin to bridge the gap between science and religion." (p. 523) It leaves the Church struggling to answer the question, "What role does the Church play if science explains creation?"
