The Future Of Science And Faith

Greg Cootsona September 21, 2017

How is the relationship between religion and science changing?

With a partial backdrop of climate change, accelerating technologies, and shifting demographics, the relationship between science and faith has been re-situated by many of the world’s faith leaders. Dr. Greg Cootsona has been exploring these changes while observing the way students are transforming conversations about science and faith. Behind some of the straightforward statistics that describe science and faith in conflict and sometimes simplistic media portrayals of “the conflict between science and religion,” the lived reality for university students and young professionals are much more nuanced.

In this interactive lecture, Dr. Cootsona will explore markers of how the interface of religion and science might change in the coming decades.
