Through guided group discussion, we will look at the history and current state of the relationship between the scientific community and the Christian (or religious) community. Are the two inherently opposed to one another? What ideas are responsible for the conflicts between them? Can we better understand each other and listen to opposing viewpoints? How do those with a passion for both science and religion reconcile the two?

Cathy Britton, instructor, has a strong background in science, a Master’s in Electrical and Computer Control Systems, and 27 years of experience as an electrical engineer. Over the years, she has observed and studied this conflict carefully, having close relationships with people on both sides of the conflict. This Study Group is for those 50 and over and meets Fridays, 1:00–3:00 pm on October 25 – December 6 (no class on November 29).
