Science and Faith at MIT - a chat with a Theoretical Physicist
Sunday, April 18th, 7pm-8pm, EDT
https://mit.zoom.us/j/98356633882
Are Science and Faith friends or foes? How do the origins of the world line up with the Bible? Can a scientist believe in miracles? Has Science disproved God? Let's talk about these questions and more. A postdoc researcher in theoretical physics from Cal Berkeley and a MIT student will host this engaging discussion. They both are Christians and both love science. Come see that MIT is a place where students think deeply about both science and faith and love to wrestle with the big questions about God. Bring your thoughts and questions. Check out some cool lectures we’ve hosted previously at www.reasoningforgod.com
