THE 6340 Faith and Science

An examination of the apparent tension between the method and discoveries of modern science and the Christian faith’s theological approach to nature and the human person. The resources developed by the Christian tradition for approaching secular learning are used as a foundation for examining and critiquing the theories of contemporary authors on the relation between science and faith, focusing on central issues such as the origin of the universe and the evolution of the human species. Includes discussion of key historical episodes such as the Galileo controversy and debates over evolution.
