Has Science Disproved Christianity?

When people are asked to consider Christianity one of the replies that is commonly heard is "Hasn't Science Disproved Christianity?"

Many people assume that the advances in science from the time of the 17th century - not least the theories of Darwin - have effectively repudiated the claims of the Bible. They assume that 'Scientific Worldview' has done away with the 'Christian Worldview'. At the very least they assume that Science and Christianity are incompatible.

But is this the case?

In week 5 there will be two addresses by Richard Blight on the relationship between science and Christianity. In particular he will consider whether science disproves the claims of the Bible about God. Richard is a graduate in both Science and Theology, and will draw on his own experience of reconciling Science and Christianity.

Check out "God Talk at UWS"

In Week 5 of Semester 1, 2010, we will be having a guest speaker at UWS Bankstown. Andrew Laird will talk about: "Is God Really Good?"

In order to raise the profile of the talks and to get some input from students on campus, we have started a response blog at www.godtalkatuws.blogspot.com.

Do check it out and have a say - although we want to make sure that lots of different students have a chance to have their say.

Please be thinking and praying about who you can invite to the Tuesday and Thursday meetings. We'll look forward to seeing you there!
