The document discusses the relationship between science and religion. It covers several topics:
1) What ancient Greeks believed, including myths and early philosophers' theories on the origins of the world.
2) Important scientists like Galileo, Newton, and Darwin and how their views related to religion. Galileo challenged the Catholic Church, Newton believed science, religion, and alchemy could work together, and Darwin had doubts about religion.
3) Major world religions and their perspectives on the origins and nature of the world. Christianity, Islam, and Judaism share similar creation stories, while others like Hinduism and Buddhism have diverse beliefs.
4) Potential views on the relationship between science and religion, including that they seek
Science & Religion: Conflict or Conversation?Maya Bohnhoff
Is religion opposed to science? Has science made religion intellectually implausible? Does science rule out the existence of a “personal” God? What does "personal" mean? Does evolution do away with Divine Providence?Haven’t recent biological and neurological discoveries made illusions of the concepts of soul or spirit?
These are all questions that I've fielded from correspondents for some time. They're good questions because they call on people who hold to diverse models of the universe to do a reality check.

The relationship between religion and science has been a focus of the demarcation problem. Somewhat related is the claim that science and religion may pursue knowledge using different methodologies. Whereas the scientific method basically relies on reason and empiricism, religion also seeks (at times, primarily) to acknowledge revelation, faith and sacredness. There is no insoluble contradiction between faith and science, because there cannot be two kinds of truth. There is only one truth to which
both faith and scientific reason refer.“There exists 2 orders of knowledge” which are distinct, i.e., the order of Faith (Fides) and that of reason (ratio), and the Church recognizes that “the arts and human disciplines (...) serve one another, in their proper sphere with its proper principles and its proper method; therefore, “by recognizing this proper freedom”, the Church affirms the legitimate autonomy of the sciences.”
Is it true that most scientists are atheist, that Christianity inimical to science, and that science turns believers into unbelievers? In this lecture, we discuss what scientists really believe, based on several surveys of U.S. scientists.
In this lecture, we explore whether and where science and religion intersect, and if there’s harmony or hostility between God’s word (the Bible) and God’s world (science).

Is It Possible To Demonstrate That God Exists? - Dr. Norman Geisler (by Intel...godknt777
Contrary to common opinion, believing in the existence of God is not something which must be left up the "blind faith" or personal subjectivity of the individual.
There are very strong intellectual and logical reasons to believe that God's existence is more plausible than not.
Many features of our reality such as objective morality, biological information, the beginning of the universe, and even human consciousness, that point powerfully and persuasively to God's existence.

1. Compatibility of science and religion. 2. The (Catholic) Church's role in the development of science 3. A very brief look at a few modern controversies
What is Science?
For much of the last century, Science has held a pre-eminent place of authority to many people around the globe, a place once held by religious leaders. This is no accident. Many scientists claim that Science has replaced religion as the source of ultimate truth about our world.
Thus, it is worthwhile to examine this claim. What is science? How did it get here? What assumptions does it make? Is it worldview neutral as many claim? What is the nature of scientific proof? What kinds of proof exist and how do we determine which is the correct kind?
As a professional scientist and science educator, I have seen first hand that we do NOT teach this to our students, except in optional electives that are not advertised well. Therefore, we have generations of scientists growing up with unclear understandings of the philosophy and history of their own field, and it is affecting the quality of the scientific endeavor.

Philosophy of science paper_A Melodrama of Politics, Science and ReligionMahesh Jakhotia
ABSTRACT: The aim of my project is to understand how religious, scientific and political
reasons shaped and inspired the theory of ‘Origin of life and universe’ in a progressive way
and to look it from a philosopher’s point of view. I also want to explore the aspect on what makes a radical idea like Darwin’s evolutionary theory which was different from the existing paradigm to be accepted amongst the scientific community.
Christians often feel intimidated when talking to others about creation--not because they doubt creation but because most of academia doubts it. Feel that way no longer! The chapter discusses, in simple language, the logic behind creation and the irrational thought those who doubt creatoin must accept live with.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

inquisition put
Galileo on trial
• 2 Unit: What did
ancient Greeks
believe?
• 3 Unit: What do
scientists believe?
• 4 Unit: What do
religions say about
our world?
• 5 Unit: Why is there
science and religion?
4. THE INQUISITION
• The inquisition was a
Catholic Church’ s tribunal
• It used to examine heretic
people
• However the inquisition
often was undue
• It judged El Greco and
Galileo
• It is famous now because it
used to rack the accused.
5. GALILEO VS THE
INQUISITION
Galileo brought out a new book,
which presented a dialogue
between Copernicus ’ and
Ptolemy ΄s system. He proved
the correct system was the first.
The Pope got angry about this.
The inquisition limited Galileo’s
activity and this restricted him.
WHAT WAS THE RESULT?????
6. Religion conflicted with
science and science
conflicted with religion.
Some still believe this. But:
Why is there science and
religion?
What do religions say
about our world?
What do scientists believe?
What do ancient Greeks
believe?
8. ANCIENT GREEKS
The Ancient Greeks worked on math (Pythagoras),
geometry (Euclid), astronomy and medicine (Hippokrates).
Also they were interested in ethics and laws. But they used
to wonder “How did our world begin?”. When they started
to wonder, they explained everything through myths. Myths
were connected with religion.
‘’ The stars were created when
Hera’ s milk was spilled by
Heracles and Hermes ‘’
9. ANCIENT
PHILOSOPHERS
Ancient Greek philosophers tried to explain “How our
world began?” and many other questions. However
today many people don’t consider them scientists
because:
1) They didn’t check their theories
2) They didn’t have sound arguments about their
theories
3) They hadn’t observed nature before they
formulated their theories
WHAT DID THEY SAY ?
10. Τhales of Miletus
Thales (640-546) was a
mathematician, astronomer,
engineer, meteorologist and
philosopher.
He believed that “ Everything began from water ”.
Apparently he was affected by Egyptians who believed
the same thing. Also Thales supported that earthquakes
came from the water because the earth was flat and
floated over a big ocean. In the end he believed gods
were everywhere
11. Anaximenes of Miletus
Anaximenes (585,528) was a
philosopher. Anaximenes,
Thales and Anaximander
belonged to the Ionian school.
He believed that “ Everything began from the
air”. Further he thought all differences between
things were due to how compact the air was.
Therefore fire becomes rock because it comes
from the air! Anaximenes didn’t believe in Zeus
etc.. In the end, he believed the air was
innumerable and spontaneous
12. Others
Empedocles) He believed
that “Everything came from
fire, water, earth and air”.
Also he introduced
“φιλότητα” and “νείκος”
.
(Empedocles) He
believed that
“Everything came
from fire, water,
earth and air”. Also
he introduced
“φιλότητα” and
“νείκος”
13. Furthermore there
were other
philosophers who
didn’t believe the
world was from fire,
water, air or earth. As
Democritus and
Pythagoras.
Anaximander
expressed a theory
like Anaximenes.
14. CONCLUSION
We saw the first attempts which
explain how the world began. People
created myths (which were connected
with gods), theories which said that
the gods existed (Thales) and others
which said they didn’t (Anaximenes).
What happened after the ancient
philosophers?
Thales
Anaximenes
16. MIDDLE AGES
• 30 BC: The Romans conquered Egypt
• 313 AD: Constantine the Great signed the Edict of
Milan
• 395 AD: Theodosius I separated the empire and
forbade idolatry
• 529 AD: Justinian I closed the
Academy of Plato
• Theocratic countries were
created
• 1453AD: Constantinople
wasconquered
• 1300-1600 AD: The Renaissance
17. The Catholic
Church’ s power
The Catholic Church was powerful.
Everyone would be harmed , if they
doubted it or the Bible. Only Martin
Luther managed to do that. The Catholic
Church had oppressed people because of
the Bible. This stemmed from the Middle
ages and Galileo. There are some people
who believe everything which is written in
the Bible today.
18. GALILEO
He lived in Italy (1564-1642)
He made the first telescope
He was the first who saw the
solar system
He believed in the Bible and
was religious but didn’t
believe anything which was written about
our world. Also he always told the truth
despite what the Catholic Church was saying.
IMPORTANT DISCOVERIES
1) Mobility laws
2) Oscillation laws
3) Law of fall
4) Construction of the
solar system
5) Zeus’ s natural
satellites
19. Isaac Newton
He believed there were
three ships with which
he could sail the oceans to find the
truth. They are alchemy, religion (Bible)
and science.
He was born on 1642
Robert Hooke (who discovered
F=kx) envied him
He made the best satellite ever
IMPORTANT DISCOVERIES
1) Motivation laws
2) Gravity
3) Law of fall
4) Optics laws
20. Charles Darwin
When he was a child,
he believed in the Bible.
When he was 19 years old, he tried to
become a padre! Then, when he
published his theories, he didn’t believe in
in the Bible. He had doubts.
He never wrangled with other
scientists while his friends
protected his theories. (Darwin
was quiescent)
He married his cousin.
IMPORTANT DISCOVERIES
1) Evolution
21. CONCLUSION
We saw three important scientists who
changed our world! We would see the
universe differently today, if they hadn’t
existed. However they supported
different theories about religion (and the
Bible). Galileo didn’t abolish the Bible,
Newton believed the Bible is a road to
the truth and Darwin was a skeptic. All of
them saw the world differently, but they
helped scientists.
What do religions say about our world?
Galileo
Newton
Darwin
23. IMPORTANT RELIGIONS
Religions (which have
many follower) are:
Christianity
Islam
Hinduism
Buddhism
Taoism
Confucianism *
Judaism
What do they say about our
world?
Are there any similarities
between them?
24. Christianity - Islam
Judaism
Christianity, Islam and Judaism have much likeness.
They aren't polytheistic religions. The Old Testament is
found in both Christianity and Judaism. Also the Islam
considers Christ a prophet. Furthermore, three
religions describe mainly the same theory about the
beginning of the world. God made the world. God
created Adam whom he put in a grand garden. “All of
the plants and the animals would be
controlled by Adam” God said. But
Adam infringed on god’ s orders etc.
25. Taoism
Taoism was created by Tao de Jing. Tao said the “Tai-
ji” (big unity) gave birth to the yin and yang:
On the one hand, Yin is associated with the earth,
darkness and humility.
On the other hand yang is associated with energy,
brightness, solidness and highness.
They constitute everything. Taoism is
more like philosophy.
Yang and yin is alterated like day-night, youth-
anility. Yin is sea, fresh, silver and yang is land,
bone, gold.
26. Hinduism
Brahma: is the world’ s creator. He has
four heads and four hands. This
symbolizes his strength. He is married
to the god of wisdom.
Vishnu: is the world’ s protector. He has
four hands and he holds special
symbols. He knows everything, he can
do anything.
Shiva: is the world’ s destructor
The universe is created, is preserved and is
destroyed. Hinduism is a religion which has many
Gods. But here are the most important ones
Brahma
Vishnu
Shiva
27. Buddhism
Gautama created Buddhism.
He is known as Buddha
which means enlightened.
Everyone must meditate
(yoga) to reach Nirvana
(paradise). It comes from
Hinduism. Buddhists believe
in reincarnation and not in a
greater god.
28. CONCLUSION
We saw the most important religions. We learn that
Confucianism is not a religion, Christianity, Islam and
Judaism have many similarities, Taoism is like a
philosophy. We must know how many different views
there are about science, religions and their relations. We
read about their theories about the creator of the
world.But today:
• What do people believe about science and religion?
• Why is there science and religion?
30. First view
Religion and science are seeking the same truth
through different ways. Science is active, it tries
through research and its results to find the
truth. Whereas, religion is passive. It expects
religious people to discover the truth.
31. A hypothetic dialogue
- Do you believe in God ?
- No, I don’t.
- Why not ?
- Because logic says that there is no God
- There isn’t proof for that. As in positive sciences,
you can’t take something as a fact without proof.
- Where do you base the existence of God?
- I feel like God exists.
- Well… I feel God doesn’t exist.
32. Second view
Lastly, science deals with different questions
than religion. In other words, science researches
the ways nature works, and presents its laws.
While religion tries to find who created the
world and why.
