Today’s featured entry from the Vatican Observatory Faith and Science pages:
“Lemaitre follows two paths to truth” (CLICK HERE for it)
This is a 1933 New York Times interview with Fr. Georges Lemaître, Father of the “Big Bang Theory”. The Times comments that Lemaître’s views are “interesting and important not because he is a Catholic priest, not because he is one of the leading mathematical physicists of our time, but because he is both”.
The Faith and Science pages (F&S) are a unique resource on the web. The material in F&S is stuff that you will find nowhere else (or at least not without a lot of digging). Featured areas on F&S include “History of Church and Science”; “Church and Science Today”; “Science and Scripture”; “Science, Religion & Society”; “Life in the Universe”; “Cosmology”; and more. The level of the F&S material ranges from being accessible to all audiences, with even some material oriented toward young readers, up to material for university specialists.
The F&S pages, like this blog, are made possible by the Vatican Observatory Foundation (the Vatican Observatory’s US operation that operates the Vatican Advanced Technology Telescope, or VATT, in Arizona). CLICK HERE to support the F&S pages, this blog, and the operation of the VATT.
