UWTV lecture on science and religion

February's theme is the fourth UU principle:

  • A free and responsible search for truth and meaning
Along that line, I ran across a lecture from University of Washington TV by a Jesuit scientist, George Coyne, S.J., director of the Vatican Observatory. He has found a way to integrate both science and religion into his life.

The lecture is available for on-demand viewing in both Windows Media and Quick Time formats:

It probably helps if you have a broadband internet connection.

Even if you don't agree that science and religion should be mentioned in the same breath, much less the same life, his extensive overview of the history of the universe is in itself worth the viewing time.
