Description

Efforts being made by scientists and theologians to find common ground between their two seemingly opposing fields are captured at a Divine Action Conference. Sponsored jointly by the Vatican and the Center for Theology and the Natural Sciences, Berkeley, the conference gathers leading scientists, theologians, and philosophers, who discuss such issues as the origin of the universe and the meaning of life. Visits to Cambridge University and Johns Hopkins provide a scientific backdrop for discussions about whether recent space probes could threaten biblical teachings on creation. This thought-provoking dialogue between people of good faith makes a strong contribution to public discourse.
