The Adult Class meets at 9:30am on Sunday mornings in the church parlor.
Religion and science have had a shaky relationship ever since the rise of modern science, especially following the discoveries of Galileo and Darwin. This class will look at the different ways that thinkers have attempted to relate or reconcile insights from religion and science, using several major scientific areas as examples of conflicts that continue to trouble us, such as: astronomy/cosmology; evolution; and quantum physics.
I studied religion and science in my academic work at TCU and Claremont School of Theology and currently teach a seminar for first-year students called "Gods, Scientists, and Monsters" at Trinity University, where I am the associate director of the library.
