SUMMARY:Non-Credit Course - Faith\, Science\, and Reason
DESCRIPTION:This weekly non-credit course is open to current Chicago area students and faculty. Others interested in attending should contact us. Registrants are free to attend as many sessions as they choose. Sessions do not presuppose previous attendance or prior knowledge of the subject. \n\nIf the new Cosmic story\, that started with the Big Bang about 13.8 billion years\, were likened to a 30-volume encyclopedia\, each volume consisting of 450pp.\, each page the equivalent of a million years\, modern humans appear on the last page of the last volume. Are we humans a random consequence of evolving mindless matter or the crowning achievement of God’s creative plan? \nCan a Christian believer reconcile the findings of the modern natural sciences with their religious beliefs?  What about the Church’s condemnation of Galileo and the apparent atheism of Darwinian evolution?  Are religious faith and scientific reason intransigent enemies or convergent collaborators on the fundamental questions concerning the meaning and purpose of human life?  This non-credit class will discuss these questions with theologian Fr. Peter Bernardi\, S.J.\, and a series of guest speakers from the natural and social sciences\, as well as philosophy. \n\n6:00 PM Dinner | 6:30 PM Lecture \nSchedule: \nApril 5 | The Biblical Doctrine of Creation and Scientific Evolution: Conflict or Convergence? \nApril 12 | What does Athens (Philosophy) have to do with Jerusalem (Religious Faith)? \n  \nApril 19 | The Aristotelian Revolution & St. Thomas Aquinas’s ‘Summa’ on Faith and Reason \n  \nApril 26 | Can an intelligent person still be an atheist?  An Updated Assessment of Modern Atheism \n  \nMay 3 | Navigating Science and Religion: From Conflict to Dialogue with Humility – Prof. Joseph Vukov (Loyola University Chicago) \n  \nMay 10 | Conservation and Consumption in a Laudato Si Context – Prof. Christie Klimas (DePaul University) \n  \nMay 17 | Genetic Manipulation – Prof. Gayle Woloschak (Northwestern University) \n  \nMay 24 | Biological Evolution and the Christian Tradition – Dr. Peter Tierney (Lumen Christi Institute)
