Darwin Week

Although I missed the 'first-hand' presentation of my church's sermon on Darwin this Sunday, I caught it as a podcast which they've helpfully done - here's the link.

Don't think that I'm pushing a one-sided, biased commentary on you, by the way, since I can faithfully say that its a beautifully mature look at the ongoing debate about science and God, where the speaker is well aware of the dangers of the fundamentalist's point of view, be they a Darwinian fundamentalist or a christian fundamentalist.

Rightly, I think, Phil discusses the significance of both sides' 'a priori' beliefs and their foundational viewpoints. More than anything, I got the sense from his sermon, that we are not expected to 'switch off' our heads in order to understand more about the 'Who' behind this life, but that science will continue to provide answers as to the 'How' of the universe around us.
