Deep Talks: Exploring Theology and Meaning Making
Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
The 19th century marked a time of significant discovery in geology and biology, but with these scientific discoveries came a picture of a much older, more violent, and less human-centric world than people previously imagined. In many ways, it was this era that marked the beginning of the "science vs. faith" debates in Western civilization that continue on to this day.
Can we really blame Adam and Eve's fall for the existence of disease, famine, and natural disasters when it becomes clear that these things were around for millions of years before humans?
Was there an atheistic conspiracy to use this new science to do away with Christianity, or were people like Charles Darwin thrust into a crisis of faith after their scientific discoveries?
Does evolution make God a moral monster, or does it make God's world filled with more mystery and wonder? Is it all just a matter of perspective?
Plus:
-Frankenstein's monster as a theological symbol of this era's quest for meaning,
-the discovery of dinosaurs
-the horrific details of real parasites in creation that act like Xenomorphs in the Alien movies,
-the historical roots of the young-earth creationism apologetics and a priest who said Darwin was right and Christians better start dealing with it.
and so much more!
