February 8th: Science and Religion Series with the Reverend Joseph G. Wolyniak
While most people of faith do not think there is an essential conflict between science and religion, we might not be sure whether or how they can coexist—or even cohere. This talk will offer a primer on the history of science and religion, with practical tools for people of faith to think and talk about reason and revelation today.
Fr. Joseph Wolyniak (Mtr. Liz Costello’s husband—you know, the guy with the rambunctious kids in the back pew) will lead these interactive sessions, having studied neuroscience, philosophy, and theology.
