Description
About the book
The text has been developed for a course delivered to senior students of St Ignatius College Adelaide in Australia. It attempts to acquaint students with the methodology of science and seeks to facilitate an appreciation of some of the findings of modern cosmology. It shows these findings not to be in conflict with the message of Christianity. Rather, these findings illuminate the religious doctrine of creation and purpose.
Topics include: importance of science and religion, achievements and limitations of the methods of science, the method of religion, birth of the modern cosmology, modern scholarship of the Book of Genesis, the stars as instruments of creation, the anthropic universe and the resurrection.
The book includes a CD with over 200 power point presentations divided into chapters corresponding to chapters in the book which can be used by teachers and students.
