Main themes |
In order to achieve these ends, these themes will be developed:
- brief history of the relationship between (natural and human) sciences and Christianity in its institutional and conceptual aspects;
- typology of the different ways of the dialogue and confrontation between sciences and theologies with their limits, relevance and theological grounds;
- study of some recent cases.
|
Aims |
At the end of this activity, the student will be able
- to present the main stages of the historical evolution of the relationship between sciences and Christian faith;
- to describe and evaluate the different types of possible relationships between sciences and faith, religion, Christian theology, with their relevance and limits;
- to analyse precise cases of contemporary relations between sciences and theologies.
