Should science and scientists interfere with religion? That's something that the world seems to be ambivalent about. That's our word of the week - ambivalent.
It refers to having mixed feelings towards an object or an issue or a living being. This word was used repeatedly in the India media to describe the feelings of Indian scribes towards the head of a ruling party (they are unable to choose between two opposite feelings, that of being in awe and or to detest).
Ambivalent is borrowed from psychology where it is a term used to express the coexistence of both - positive as well as negative feelings toward the same action or person.
