| "Intersections of Science and Theology" is
an adult educational series that is sponsored by the Waitsfield
United Church, managed and moderated by a group of interested
residents of the Valley. The series is hosted at the Waitsfield and
Warren churches . Most importantly, all are welcome, as the learning
experience of the series is only enhanced by the participation of
multiple faith and no faith traditions.
The Warren Church is providing web space to host the presentations,
discussion notes
and additional resources for all to see.

Description |
Cosmos |
In 1980, the landmark
series Cosmos premiered on public television. Since then, it
is estimated that more than a billion people around the planet
have seen it. Cosmos chronicles the evolution of the planet
and efforts to find our place in the universe. Each of the 13
episodes focuses on a specific aspect of the nature of life,
consciousness, the universe and time. Topics include the
origin of life on Earth (and perhaps elsewhere), the nature of
consciousness, and the birth and death of stars. When it first
aired, the series catapulted creator and host Carl Sagan to
the status of pop culture icon and opened countless minds to
the power of science and the possibility of life on other
worlds. |
Not Mutually Exclusive |
For too long, science
and faith have had a combustible relationship. But even churches
evolve. In the UCC, we're not afraid of science and technology.
In fact, we embrace it. |
