Brief Biographical Sketch:
I am from Lisbon, Portugal, and I graduated in Physics at IST, University of Lisbon. Past Classes(Clicking a class title will bring you to the course's section of the corresponding course catalog)H6633: Science and Faith - where the conflict really is in Splash Fall 2018 (Dec. 01 - 02, 2018)
How do science and religion see each other? Is there a fundamental conflict? Do they interfere in each other?
In this course, we review the history of science and analyze how its relationship with religion was, namely with the Roman Catholic Church.
We will talk about medieval science, Galileo and the Inquisition, the conflict thesis, the influence of the Jesuits, the Big Bang theory, genetics and evolution, and we end up talking about the two great philosophical assumptions of science and how they relate to Christianity.
Cheers!
PS: the true duration of the course is 1:00, the rest is for questions and for a surprise
