After reading about Pierre Duhem, I am concerned about the validity of his theories on what concerns contemporary philosophy of science.
I am mainly interested in the relation between Duhem's deep religious beliefs, and their influence in his cosmological vision, as related to Science, projected to today's world.
What I have seen in some web sites is to that his particular philosophy is nowadays used by devout Catholics to give to the Scientific oriented community a balanced perspective.
I would like to discuss this matter with other people that are also intrigued by this fact.
Pierre Duhem's theories value today
