Prayer Intelligent discussion of the science-faith interplay

Just stumbled across this two-part interview on youtube, featuring Dr. Denis Lamoureux:





It's an excellent discussion about the interplay between science and faith that goes beyond the false dichotomy that the extremists at either end like to push. It's really a very rewarding 12 minutes or so to watch.

Great videos.

Nice to see a "purest" of science and a committed theistic evolutionist respective each others' views and agreeing on the importance that religion and science aren't at odds.

I'm very impressed. Left me with a great feeling.

I should also point out another print interview with Denis here:

http://www.canadianchristianity.com/...31120evolution

It's a good read. The interviewer comes to Denis with a lot of misconceptions about evolution and evolutionary creationism, and Denis does a good job of setting the record straight.
