HAS SCIENCE REPLACED GOD?

Sep 19, 2015 - 5:30pm to 7:00pm

Has Science Replaced God? Saturday, September 19, 5.30 to 7 pm Durham University (UK) Physics Professor Dr Tom McLeish, The Rees Hotel Queenstown conference room.

Please register at connect@catalystnz.org, $5 at the door.

Loud voices in the media declare that science has conclusively dismissed the possibility of God through repeated waves of discovery - but is this the right conclusion? What do the most far-sighted scientists say? And what does theology say? Might science actually need some help to rediscover its human and cultural roots? Join UK physicist and author of ‘Faith and Wisdom in Science,’ Tom McLeish, to explore the issues. He is a Professor of Physics at Durham University, where he studies the science of slimy stuff (like developing new plastic materials and how signals travel inside living cells) and has been involved in science communication in the media, schools and churches for over 20 years.
