Join science and religion scholar Melissa Cain Travis for a six-week interdisciplinary study designed to dispel persistent myths surrounding the historical interaction between Christianity and science. This live, interactive course will begin with the earliest archaeological records of ancient astronomy and culminate with the contemporary conversation. Topics will include Patristic attitudes towards natural philosophy, the so-called “Dark Ages," Christian intellectual giants of the scientific revolution, the rise of Darwinian thought, the 20th century physics and cosmology revolution, and the American science and faith conversation over the past century. Special attention will be given to infamous episodes such as the Galileo affair and the Scopes "monkey" trial. This course is suitable for both STEM and humanities educators.
